    Just off the dyno is another bad ass engine from Scotty. We made10 pulls last night and ended up with 703hp and 640 ft lbs of torque! This is a low compression 494 engine with stage 1 SE heads. The heads and intake are a work of art. A big thanks to scotty for surpassing my expectations. Here is some pics and I'll try and load a dyno pull. image.jpg

    Congrats Dom but I would be worried about that oil pressure going away at higher rpm. Gotta have 75lbs at 6500 if you want it to last.

    Alan, never had the last engine on the Dyno but I would assume it had to be around 650 hp.

    I believe the oil temp was probably pretty high the last pull And probably lost some pressure that way. This was a new front cover so it may need a bit of a tweak.

    Thanks for the kind words guys and let's bring on spring already!
