I have, I would build them nonstop intake to pan for 11,000. Believe it or not its pretty easy to get 800 out of a 496, the down side is the power peak is on the low side.

I did say oil pan to carb and I kn ow what's required to get an honest 800HP out of a 496.
That said, you'd have a hard time convincing me and many others that you build/sell a 468-496 using factory castings that makes 800HP, proved on the track for $11K. |

We know Johns been 138.3 @ 3615 in 800 feet air with no tuning with 32 degrees timing, this 10.7 compression engine made 774 on my dyno, I think its shows the power, another point of compression pushes it over 800. I wouldnt want to include the carb for 11,000.

2. we only know what he and you have stated and both you have a reputation not telling the whole truth. least of which is like his engine is backed up by a $6,000 lite weight trans and the air was more like -500' 3. this ain' the op's question or topic |

Im very confident that on any calibrated SF 901 dyno, correcting @ 29.92, 60 degrees dry air, 0 humidity, I can make over 800 HP through my mufflers. And I would back it with big money, I guess thats all I can say. John trans is a 3000.00 trans. So if you run 131 in your chevelle, claiming 700 HP, how much HP does it take to run a 138.3 @ 3615-3630, fair question Ed. It would be interesting to see Johns car with a forward facing hood scoop, I believe we will see a 140 when he gets it dialed. John ran some tire spinning 138.3 MPH runs a week ago in 800 feet air.

as I have stated and proven before, his trans can't be bought for $3k used no mind new...
http://www.racingjunk.com/Transmissi...and-parts.html just one of the many lies and misinformation posted about this car and it's performance on the net. If you want to continue to debate it, start another thread. |
