That is amazing for 93 octane. Do you think that is really long term safe? That has the gears grinding in my head. What size Whipples are those?

They have just about 100 hours and going strong. They are owned by Thunderusone on the board.

They are 3.3L Whipples. Actually, the power was down a little over what I expected. However, the torque was up, which is good for the heavy boat they are in. I think the carb. is just a little to small, accounting for the increased torque and lower power.
We really spent the time to tune them to a tee. They drive and run as good or better than any efi engine. It actually surprised me how good they drive and idle.

No I don't. I don't know anyone that wants to sell them once they get it.

I figured you would get a grin out of that.

No doubt huh?

However, I do know where to get some new ones. It just so happens that I have them on sale this week.

my 598 NA made 760hp at 5950 on precision's dyno. boat runs pretty good, 112 on gps speedo, but takes forever to get there.

with a CR of 10:1, i plan to use a thick cometic gasket, about 0.100", to get the CR to 9.

with the new whipple 4.5L, should make around 1050 with 7-8psi.

i am using the holley HP EFI and will creep up on the timing and AFR.
