Needs to make a few more oats to be competitive @ weight.

Not dogging the build at all though so please don't take it that way

Exactly how many oats does one require out if a 598?

Enough to run the number and take the Q1 position. O/L 275 ain't no joke...

so you're a number one qualifier?

I can see this going wayyy overboard. Carry on

I'm just a bystander here....but I for one didn't think tonys post was out of line. Imo he wasn't disrespecting the engine, or the builders at all. Infact...as I read it he was just explaining to whoever suggested it would be fun to see it in a 275x that it may likely take more beans to be competitive in that class. (which this engine wasn't even built to compete in!)

I think freelanders getting his undies all bunched up for nothin.

Just sayin...

Gentlemen...
Let's keep this on topic...

for what its worth I can see that motor pushing my fire engine in to the 60's on 1   

very good numbers  ! That's some good hp that most will never make ! Me being one of them that won't ever have the wallet to make that hp .

I do not have enough info to give you a real good comparison yet but I would guess a lot of it would have to do with application, cui etc.   Let me say that the c-heads stuff runs better than the dyno shows.  I really think the acceleration rate on the c-head is pretty good.  I am excited to see how this engine runs on the track and how tunable it is.  Thanks

Is the thor head better with nitrous then the c head? I read the c head tune has less room for error then some heads.

I have several c-head engines running spray.  The combustion chamber is a hot chamber but we have had no problems.  Just need to understand that and make adjustments in the build for it. imo

It'll detonate if you don't zero deck it!   

Could depend on where your zero is? >grin<
