I can respect that statement.

I say let's still conduct the dyno test and put some finality on this thing!!!
 

Sounds like you have forfeitted (spelling?)---it still would have been very interesting to have seen the outcome from this entire arguement and dyno test competition/comparison.

As long as this whole thing has gotten everyone's attention why don't Madara and Vortechpro still conduct the dyno test just for arguement's sake??? That way it can put some of these arguements to rest (at least to some degree) for any future arguements.

OHHHH Morris, it's din din:

i think the dyno test would be a waste of time as the motors are built for 2 different types of use. Tune a motor for max power and then take it and make a power pull for even 5 min's and you stand a good chance of detonating it to death. Also it will take a good dyno to be able to hold a motor for 20 min. This was a competion that VP could not win if he was set up for max power and i think he figured that out.

Take two identical single engine boats and run the crap out of them for a few days. I think we know who's boat will run the best and won't blow up.

Dang! I wanted to see a shootout. Oh well VP is right about most of us having a love for making power and having fast stuff. I'm not saying we need to stick together, but to argue or debate to the point of getting furious is silly.:kiss:

for good measure
 

Called out by Bob Madera/ Haxby to an engine edurance test. Rules: 454 production block, 454 production heads, any thing else goes. Testing procedure: Haxby/Madera will make one HP dyno pull, then run at 6500 RPM for 20 minutes under full load. The water will then be changed and Vortecpro will follow the same test, which ever engine finishes the test will win, if both engines finish the (endurance test) the highest HP will win. Fuel will be 89 octane as speced by Haxby, 10,000 dollars will be held 30 days in advance (prior to the test) by Mike Lewis, winner takes all. The test shall be conducted at Westec in Ca.

Well I'm NO engine builder in any way, but even I can tell you that is a superflow SF901. So he doesn't have white walls, a black and white checkered floor and stainless benches. Just my .02 and that dyno cost about $20000. Thats an expensive test stand.

Reading the entire thread before quoting out of context, and you would understand better. BTW, where did I say what it was or wasn't? and no one cares what it did or didn't cost. I can buy a million dollar CNC machine The fact that I don't know how to use it might affect its outcome.

Did I ever say YOU called it a test stand, Did I ever say someone DID or DID NOT know how to use it?
