That's awesome Artie. Dean is a really good guy I got to meet him up at Lake Erie about three years ago and he really knows how to build an engine.

92.5 mph - turning 32p (Labbed) Bravo ones, at 5500 rpm?

Dock,

Very interesting. Nice results. Think I would like to see you try labbed 34s. Am guessing they would put you in the 98 mph range at close to the same rpm. Other option is lab the 32s to put you right on the limiter.

I got you by .06 mph, Dave;)

There's probably a couple more left in it after
he does some more fiddling with it.

Now when Dock installs a set of 32's that are labbed and cupped into 33's ! I could be right on?

Dock, what kind of speed did you see when you had your 500EFI's while they were modified?
