Re: Video/Pics - Motor # 1 on Dyno this AM.
 

I put the same spacer on my motors. No idea how much more power they make, but it sounds fast...

Re: Video/Pics - Motor # 1 on Dyno this AM.
 

Looks and sounds good Neil.

Re: Video/Pics - Motor # 1 on Dyno this AM.
 

anybody ever run a dyno with the engine setup as it is in the boat, watching that video just makes me wonder... full dress, water cooled headers, stainless mesh arrestor.... i was just curious if anybody does this to give you a more "in boat" HP number.... i know it would be a logistic nightmare to do some of that stuff, but i was just curious.. :D

Re: Video/Pics - Motor # 1 on Dyno this AM.

Re: Video/Pics - Motor # 1 on Dyno this AM.
 

Andy is doing the work in his shop here in Burlington VT.

He re-built both my engines in my Tiger and has worked on Doc John's NA/598CI's dynoed at 715 HP. He does terrific work at a descent price but he is extremely busy.

He is also very thorough when he re-built mine he use to come by the launch to make sure everything was running perfect. A genuinely good guy.

Currently my Bravos are in the classified section. Plans are to pick up xr's.

Re: Video/Pics - Motor # 1 on Dyno this AM.
 

Bryan,

Andy Costello of AC Performance. As GL said about him and more. He has been building for many, many years. Can't say enough good about his dedication to his work. If you need motor work it would be worth the drive.

Re: Video/Pics - Motor # 1 on Dyno this AM.
 

I think I'll stick with the originals... :drink: :drink:

Re: Video/Pics - Motor # 1 on Dyno this AM.

Re: Video/Pics - Motor # 1 on Dyno this AM.
 

Sean Most of the marine dyno shops do dyno them full dressed . I did mine even with the powersterring pump w/ fluid in it, Also my fuel system so there was no adjustment in the boat necessary..Thats the way Mark at Precision Marine dynos them ,just the way it is in the boat :D It doesn't show real good #'s with the all the asseroys.But at least you know what it makes in the boat and its drop in and run pretty much :D

They say the just the CMI over the race car headers is about 25 hp.then you have the alternator, Merc water pump,water circulator.power steering pump :eek:

drypipetiger motors sound healthy, Congrats . Maybe JC's spacer can pick ya up some more :D Keep us posted......

Rob :drink:

Re: Video/Pics - Motor # 1 on Dyno this AM.
 

A tablecloth for many is much, much better than nothing... :drink:

Re: Video/Pics - Motor # 1 on Dyno this AM.
 

I will Rob.

So my CMI exhaust would feasibly push me over 700hp?

Re: Video/Pics - Motor # 1 on Dyno this AM.
 

No they rob power,sorry :( 15-25hp depending on the style .Your dry tailpipes should help though on the boat .

Most shops run the race car style hearder because of the EGT's in them . They dont want to buy a set of $3000. CMI just to dyno and put EGT bungs them.they will never recoop the 3000.00 :(

Rob :drink:

Re: Video/Pics - Motor # 1 on Dyno this AM.
 

Congrats Neil on the new motors.
Fyi We made 10 more hp and around 15 more tq by adding a spacer on my ford 427 stroker motor. Jamie

Re: Video/Pics - Motor # 1 on Dyno this AM.
 

First nice piece very good numbers. Petelle's Super Suckers work very well. You have to figure if NASCAR outlawed them they must work.

JCPerf,
Question for you. Note the torque drop in the 3600 rpm range. This seems to be a common occurance in these large bore and large stroke engines. Just want your oppinion on what it may be? Have you and Richie seen the same over the years?


Chris

Re: Video/Pics - Motor # 1 on Dyno this AM.
 

When I asked, I thought that you lived closer to me than you do. I wanted to come take a peek at your boat...
