What do consider pump fuel. This doesn't sound like 93 oct.

inside joke... :D pump fuel = any fuel that comes out of a pump

Re: HP on pump fuel
 

I would love to have some of those. Dustin is telling me mine should make 1300 on pump fuel. That sounds a little optimistic to me, I'll be happy with anything over 1200. Should know in about a month.
We know there are people making approx 1200 with big chief heads and roots blowers.So if the Quad-rotors make an addition 100-150hp as claimed 1300-1350 maybe.

Re: HP on pump fuel
 

there is claims of 1500-1600 out there, but i don't know how long they last or if they make that much....

Gatorone has 1200 Eikerts now and is putting the Quad-rotors on this winter.KE should be able to get about as much as anyone and make them live, I would think.

Re: HP on pump fuel
 

Reliablely I think that right now around 1150 -1200 hp on pump gas. But with the new technology on turbos and people finally getting into turbos we should be able to get close to 1500 on pump gas. That is hot right there 1500 such a nice number too. BBC seem to need to have the rockers and lifters replaced after 50-75 hours. That is the only draw back on them.

Mecr is a big company that spend 5-7 millions dollars on R&D for there new 1075 engines that runs on pump gas. How come they did not make engines with 1200+ hp to run on pump gas. What I am asking is that if merc spend all this money on engine R&D and only came up with 1075 engines to run on pump gas. How do these others Engine guys build engines that have 1200 - 1600 hp to run on pump gas. I guest it is like putting 5 lbs of sh*t in a 2 lbs bag it will work for a few pulled on the dyno.

The Merc's are still running Conventional style heads vs big chief style which I'm told is somewhere between 75-100hp difference. Also the mercs are very conservative on their HP ratings and their set-up. Those two things should put you pretty close to 1200+ Consider you 800's which I asume are pump fuel and Merc only makes a 525hp pump fuel n/a motor.

Re: HP on pump fuel
 

They want turn key every day no worries motors. Where other companies are ok with turning it up a notch to get you more hp out if it. Who makes 1600 on pump gas?

We built some 721ci engines with 16:71 Littlefield blowers,Olds heads,innercooled,and Kinsler electronic fuel injection and 16 injectors per engine 8 above the blower and 8 in the intake runners. The engine made 1200HP@ 5500RPM and 1300 ft # of torque on 93 octane gas. We built these engines 5 or 6 years ago.
