Any news from the Chicken Coop Dyno?

[fryedaddy]

HELL FIRE boy,you trying to spin the planet with that thang!

[Cyclone03]

Would love to see the pre run checklist on that.

Today FE stands for Factory Experimental !!!

[JERICOGTX]

Just curious Jay, but will a stock "type" distributor work, or will a Crank trigger, Coil on Plug arrangement be needed? I know it works better for tuning obviously.

[jayb]

Stock type distributor will work on the single 4 and dual 4 manifolds, but not the crossram, unless you have one of those offset distributors.

Jay I may have missed it, but any details on the mule beneath the heads?

[jayb]

Ross, it is 511 cubes, 4.310" bore Pond cast iron block, 4.375" stroke RPM forged crank, Crower billet rods, CP 13:1 pistons, and the cam is a solid roller, .880" gross lift, 285/292 @ .050 duration.  Crower solid roller lifters.  It has a Milodon 8 quart pan, a Moroso windage tray, and a Precision Oil Pumps high volume pump.  It is nearly identical to the 504" version that I tested all the 351C intakes on, except for the cam and pistons.

Be fun to do a guess the hp on this monster.
Not knowing the heads would make it interesting.

[fryedaddy]

is this possibly going to be the most powerful NA/FE ever built,if all goes well?

[turbohunter]

No pressure Jay

[My427stang]

Wicked....can’t wait 

[jayb]

is this possibly going to be the most powerful NA/FE ever built,if all goes well?

No, most certainly not.  The original design objective was to make a set of heads and induction system that would be good for up to 900 HP without any porting.  The purpose of the dyno session will be to try to see if the heads and induction system meet that objective.

looks powerful to me,i thought you might kill 2 birds with one stone. i have never seen anything more impressive in the fe line. i guess i shouldnt have said that.

I'd expect it to run right up there, especially with that head flow, don't sit during the run, a seat cushion will end up where it shouldn't be

Do you have a date you plan to run it? and silly question, but does the dyno have enough exhaust to support it?

[blykins]

Jay, you oughta do a GTH on it.....will be fun.

[Joe-JDC]

It will need to make 1.77 HP/CI to reach Jay's goal.  Not a stretch at 13:1 and very good heads and intake, with lots of lift on that camshaft.  I think Jay has already done the math several times over, and now we just wait for the results.  2.19 x cfm gets him there, depending on the flow from the as cast heads at .880" lift.  .257 x cfm x 8 gets him very close depending on the cfm, also.  I think he has it all figured out.  Joe-JDC
