If its not something.. The Procharger better work perfectly. It took some custom work to get installed and now both belts I have are too short.... even the one for the 8.5 crank and 6 blower pulley is too short for even the 7.65/5.5.. Im stressing. so we took some measurements and got the proper belts ordered. The motor is on the dyno and ready, the basic information is in the Acell DFI (File started). Just need to do a very little electrical work. The plan is to run it N/A for break in tomorrow and maybe make a pull N/A. Until the belts arrive, which Procharger is overnighting. Should be interesting to see what it can do without the Procharger should be pretty strong but the 8.2 compression ratio will hold it back some.
I hope to have something tomorrow, maybe a N/A and blower pull with numbers... Keep the faith... Pretty soon, everyday it gets closer.

Was broke in some on the Dyno today, no boost, but the belt did come in around 4pm and it fits.... Some more pull tomorrow N/A just for ****s, and some boost pulls once the map gets dialed in some more.
So the engine was running today things are looking up... Hope to let you know more tomorrow

We got a moderate pull. The efi takes patience to get set up. Jason felt is was ready for a 5400rpm pull and let it rip. Remember now the motor is setup to run 6400 and 10 psi boost.
So just some max numbers.
Over 800Hp and over 900ft.lbs torque @ 6psi boost. We ran the slowest combination of pulleys on the blower a 7.65"crank and 6" blower pulley. I would imagine it might make 8psi @ 6400 with the same setup. Jason is running a mock race on Lake George Saturday but will be back on the dyno Sunday. We expect a full pull 6400RPM's the way its set up now on Sunday, my guess is at least another 100hp. And with the pulleys that will get us 10psi I would guess I will achieve my goal of over 1000hp, Torque will be just off the chart.. Over 1000ft/lbs.. It will be run with the most boost we can safely run with he combinations we have, the fastest we have would be the 8.5" crank and 5.5" blower pulley. when its all set up on the dyno we will put it in the boat, and decide what the boat will handle.
I will post more Sunday. Monday and Tuesday I will be @ Performance Marine I am thinking a pull or two Monday morning to finalize it, and start installing it in the boat. I would love to have it on the water Tuesday but dont want to get my hopes up. Most important is it be perfict....

I am pretty excited about these next 3 days. Sunday Jason will be fine tuning the DFI maps, and doing longer harder pulls. Monday and Tuesday I will be there finishing up doing pulls Monday with more pulley combinations. And hopefully getting the motor in the boat for some testing.
