You would think that there is at least one person in that state that does not have a job and has a little extra time on there hands to make a little cash that would not cause them to loose there unemployment benefits.

Yeah, the job would take a set of brass balls to pull off though, especially if they are inside..... That's why typically when it gets down to it...

how were they "stolen"? Broke into your shop?

It sounds like a dragster engine when they're revving it at the beginning.

Almost....

Well I have my friends Top Alcohols and Top Fuels in my mind when you mentioned Dragsters....

I thought all the accessories were on it? some times we do dyno them with the wet pipes on but usually not the small hp stuff. we do not really care what number the dyno shows just use the dyno to tune them. or show an increase on the same dyno. all dyno's read different so the only thing you could use the numbers for are direct comparison on the same dyno.

Plus that.

Im on the process of putting up an engine dyno myself..my rolling road one is for sale.

And they might be a tad bit on the heavy side to just grab and run.

I wish we could have put whipples on this one but he wanted to stay with as many stock parts as he could. We lowered his boost to 2 lbs so he can run on lower octane fuel then merc recomends with that engine and he is going faster then stock. some day maybe he will put the other pulley on it and run 8 lbs boost, then he will be in the 100's

I know. Bout the only thing stock are the blowers and only because I spent a couple K to have them refreshed last spring and then only got bout 15 hrs before KABOOOM. Damnit man
Now about that pully swap :sifone:

Oh Yeah !!!!!!!!

that makes me fell better knowing your raylar whippled 496 only made 805 at 8 lbs. That is less hp then any whippled engine we have made yet. Cool, i guess we are doing something right.
I will try to find the videos of some fuel injected single whipple engines we have done, two of them were stolen from us by jim mccleand of pieoria, il. If anyone wants to go there and bring them back to me so i can dyno them and put the video on here. Actually i will pay someone $10k if they put them back in my lot. Here is a pic of the 10k reward...anyone?

wow!
