Reply to "Engine and Trans photos"

...You Great Guys are Too kind!! Now here comes the truth; this engine was not ran on a dynomometer, the numbers are what I received after I input all the engine build data into the 'DeskTop Dyno', on my laptop. Most of you have seen the program before. It was produced after years of actual track testing and tens of thousands of drag strip 'runs', as well as real Dynomometer results on most all Makes and types of American and foreign Engines. The results are claimed to be Plus or Minus 4.% The HP with a single 750 Holley is 533. Most of us agree that near 100 HP will be lost through the Transaxle. So subtract that amount to come up with the power at the rear wheels. This Engines' internals are the same as what most all other Pantera Engine builders have chosen for their build up. For strength; Mostly chrome-moly, everything 'studded'. Roller Rockers but a flat tappet 'Comp' Cam. Ofcourse fully balanced. On and On, The list gets pretty long...It does run on 91 octane (10.5:1 Comp Ratio) with just a hint of pinging under load, which disappears when 'opened-up'. A few of You Gentlemen and Ladies, have a lot more under your deck lids! This is just something I put together with the help of my son Tristan; with all the experience I have gleaned over the years; and there have been a few. Thanks for your interest! Good times to all of You!...
