Can we get a link to the 600whp boss? Unless he went increased displacement I call bullshit for being stock CR.
Another example

Lol. I bet you would like to drive it lol. I have a lot of projects going on right now. But it is something I would like to do in the very near future. Plus it would be a great tax write off for my business lol.Money is the only limiting factor. Who are you using for the build? I'm betting the level of machine work required will put the cost near $50,000. You would be the first to get some serious race engine internals, valves, springs, bearings, rockers and and every mechanical piece would be new. Ed Pink Motors works on some very high RPM 4 bangers and V8's. 9,000 rpms is serious but not far from were your starting. The harmonic balancing and diagnostic would be insane. A 9-10K rpm road race motor might be good for 250-500 racing miles. Not sure what that equates to for a toy. I want to drive it for you a few times to make sure its safe.
Thanks for the link.
With the initial tunes they used when they were calibrating the engine, the output was in the 585 horsepower range, and then they switched to MS109 and later 114 octane fuel.
My point exactly about the 100 octane this guy plans on using for an engine with a whole point more of compression.As I thought CR up to 13:1, 114oct massive timing and cams.
I know you're saying this to make a point, and to a degree I agree.My point exactly about the 100 octane this guy plans on using for an engine with a whole point more of compression.
Have fun picking up the pieces of your shattered pistons after the first pull you make to 9000rpm with 100 octane and 14:1 compression.
I believe in one of his followup posts he mentions Sunogo 260GT 100 octane...which is a fine fuel but not necessarily something to support his 14:1 comp 700hp motor spinning to 9000rpm.I know you're saying this to make a point, and to a degree I agree.
1) they never said the original tune fuel used
2) with a name like EFI, I'm positive you understand the relationship of timing, detonation, octane, compression
What you fail to understand is I never said I was going to use 100 octane. I said that is what I currently use now. This isn't my first rodeo.My point exactly about the 100 octane this guy plans on using for an engine with a whole point more of compression.

Where did I ever say I was going to use 100 octane or have 14.0:1 compression etc? I didn't. I said I currently use 100 octane.I believe in one of his followup posts he mentions Sunogo 260GT 100 octane...which is a fine fuel but not necessarily something to support his 14:1 comp 700hp motor spinning to 9000rpm.
Let's just say I've built and tuned a "few* engines, and my latest project is an LS based road race engine with 7500rpm and 11.6:1 comp which uses a 98 octane unleaded gas. Perfectly fine for that setup, not so much on what he's trying to build.
I'm skeptical like I said, but I'm hoping to be proven wrong.
Lol. Agreed.Best and fastest way to get to this point and further would be to hand it off to Jon Kasse racing engines and start writing checks, 700 plus is a phone call and a few zero's away.
No joke. There are so many nay-sayers here arguing with straw men on assumptions :headbonk:Where did I ever say I was going to use 100 octane or have 14.0:1 compression etc? I didn't. I said I currently use 100 octane.
