Sweet
I seriously can't wait for the mud slingin thread yer gonna start comparing your dyno sheet to one from Jake Raby. Those 4 vs. 6 debates are the best
Hope to see you soon - Candlestick AX maybe?
Guess we could try to compare my independently conducted chassis dyno with all real systems on my car to a lab rat motor on a crank dyno done by Jake.
I havent seen many independently conducted chassis dynos on Jakes motors so I'm not sure we can have much of a debate?
Most impressive to me is that the motor is an old school six with stock 35 year old designed heads, cylinders, 2.2 liter pistons to raise compression, a real stock cooling fan and rebuilt crusty 40 mm IDA weber carbs. Pretty impressive stuff to get close to 100 HP per liter with such an old Porsche design - no fancy expensive redsigned systems or heads, toothless fans, computerizes FI, etc. Just good old Porsche engineering tweaked to make some additional HP over stock 911 S specs. We already know this motor can take abuse as it has about twenty 25 minute track sessions without single signficant issue. We had a couple of scares, but they have all been minor issues unrelated to mechanicals of the motor (fried wire harness and loose screws in the carbs - fortunately those two didnt happen at the same time or we may have had a Porsche roast)
I have to credit GD Racing
http://www.gdracing.com/ for building such a great motor. Gary knows his stuff when it comes to building cost effective 911 motors. And Schatz and Krum for their chassis tuning expertise.
