You know you're in Florida when the sun cooks you're brain and a Caprice is your drag car of choice!

Well Guys     No cooked motor yesterday...Lil Bro called me and reported in....motor #2  only produced 900hp and 850 torque at 8lbs of boost....far short of the 1200hp he was telling me it would make <laughs>    The engine builder is so freaked out from burning down the first one he wont let the big dog loose. I feel sorry for him cause he's been dealing with Bro for too long on this project..... and  ive got Bro calling me  every hour and asking me where all the extra horses are?  Funny thing is Bro uses this boat to pick up gals at the lake...even when he was married...hmmmmm wonder why she divorced him?....theres a place called party cove where everyone ties up their boats together...and you guessed it...they party....ive been there and its a sight to be seen...all the gals are topless.. botomless....lizbo action out in public..you name it :))    So heres the rub.....party cove ends on Labor Day....and he doesnt have his ride  together even though he started the project in early spring....maybe by  Christmas? :'(

That is a fine looking peice of iron. Hope he hits is HP goal. Pretty sure the topless bottomless lizbo ain't gonna know the difference between 900 and 1200. Put that som bitch in the boat and head to party cove. And tell him to take pics. He can put a few of e boat in there too

Crank up the boost!  Scary, but it looks like it's built right.  If the bottom end is tough, it can handle it.  That'll get that extra 300hp he's looking for.

98Z and Shepp Thats what I would do too.....but he's running pump gas...not race fuel

he's got chillers under the blower,but i dont know if they are running water to the the chillers on the dyno...though they should

My lil 502" chevies back in the 80's made a lil over a 1000hp with 40% overdrive on race gas ....but at the end of the season we would have a trashcan filled up with burnt pistons from the three motors....but that was full out racing...not lake boating Wash

I got a buddy that just build a drift truck outta a Dakota he's got a junk yard v8 motor that he built for it with 15 pounds of boost he's pushing 500hp in it, if I heard him right.

Good Gaaawd! Can you imagine how much fuel that thing would burn in a boat?!?! You need to post some of them Topless/Bottomless/Lizbo pictures so we can confirm that it's worth it :))

BlkSheep.....dont forget there's two of em....Whew! Ive seen the action there at party cove... the only time I went with him .... it was freakin nutz....all that stuff going on with the game wardens and lake patrol watching too!

Well...he called me tonite and they did more tuning and he got just a tad more than a 1000hp up a 100 ponies.....i told him that oughta be enough. Wash
