Disappointed Dyno Results
Dave Bamber built C460 headed 598, Gary Sellin tuned and dynamometer. I’m a little disappointed in the results, looking for advice. 1040 HP @ 6900; 825 ft. lbs. @5600. Ron’s terminator injected on methanol. I suspect the camshaft is the culprit. Isky # 311800, WW 1.8 rockers give it a number like this.
.824 .824 .288 .304 @ .050
Gary Sellin thinks the throttle body is too small, (2100 cfm)
Looking for recommendations

What is the injection tuneup?
My a head 598 made 1069 at 6800 and 920
9 ft lbs @ 5700

Re: Disappointed Dyno Results
What is the LSA on the cam?
What size pump and what is the GPM @ 4000 on it?
What size nozzles?
What size pill?
Any bypass?
How much timing?
The throttle body is larger than any single 4bbl you could put on it. Sooooooooooooooo, unless he thinks a carb would really put it down on power, he should look somewhere else.
The cam sucks

Re: Disappointed Dyno Results
I think you should be happy with these results. My 604 C head deal was 1030 and 850 on VP C113. Unless the C heads have down nozzles for the injection, you aren't going to see much better than this for power. The alcohol takes up a lot of available airspace in the runners and as such chokes the ports down.

Re: Disappointed Dyno Results
I think a bypass and a little tuning will be a fun ride.

Re: Disappointed Dyno Results
what kind of camshaft are you using, and yes it has a high speed bypass

Re: Disappointed Dyno Results
It's one of those wacky swap cams that aint worth a shit. My own specs, but I'm not near as smart as a couple of the guys on here. You will probably experience some poping if your running 1/4 mile, but may not be a problem on the 1/8 unless your geared for that only.

Re: Disappointed Dyno Results
Yeah, once you get above 800hp, horsepower per cubic dollar really goes up, naturally aspirated.
With some tuning, you're right in the ballpark for where you should be. Don't listen to you lying BBC friends. The power will show on your time slip.

Re: Disappointed Dyno Results
the dyno is a good tuneing tool
dont get to involved in numbers
my 528 Ahead deal only made 786@7400
i was thinki9ng it would make 950+ considering they are c&c ported
and this top end on a 530 made well over 950hp
but it works awsome at the track and thats were it counts
