You are correct. I watched those dyno pulls as Tommy did them and am a witness to 1700 plus on "Street" 93.

I wonder how high you can rev a 5.5 stroke motor repeatedly and reliably ?

The engine management software is the key to fine tuning these monsters. Truly at this point the limit is fuel quality...the mapping software tells you real quick where octane limits timing advance/power. Tommy's software has a unique sensor that isn't only a knock sensor but measures the best audible qualities of the actual combustion explosion and adjusts fuel/air/ignition to duplicate the optimum "audible" characteristics of each combustion cycle. What's even more mind boggling is that he can sit at his desk and measure/change these characteristics in a clients engine remotely...anywhere!!! .

And for those who don't mind running race fuel.....

Not a big deal when you compare the #'s in this thread to 100's of much smaller motors.
I have a 171 cid RB28 in my car that makes 800+ hp on 93 oct.....so a 557cid would have to make 2600+ hp to compare Mercury made the best move so far. |
