Rhs Indy X Head Thread

Ok, Dang today was a long day. Left the house at around 5:20am and didnt get back in town til around 6:30pm............

The engine made some good power and the numbers are the real deal no fluffing making up stories etc that we all normally see on the internet.

The engine sounds AWSOME kind of like a NASCAR NASTY IDLE with very QUICK throttle response and back down to idle VERY FAST! Sounds VERY wicked for sure........

The engine made 507 ft lbs of torque at 4700 rpm and well over 400 lbs starting at 3000 rpm. Horse Power was right at the same 507 hp at 6000rpm.
No pulls were done over 6000rpm being that it seemed to be about the max that it was going to do. I am sure that I will REV it way past that if it keeps pulling for sure!!!

Brian started out with my Mighty Demon 750 and the air/fuel ratio was running VERY LEAN even after some tuning was done on it. So Brian put on his Holly 1000HP Carb and the fuel ratio was VERY good and that is what made the best power. We tried that FANCY spacer that DON at FBO sells and it LOST 7 average HP and some more torque.......Funny because Don states that it will ADD 20hp. I am learning that almost ALL parts sales people DO NOT believe that you will DYNO TUNE your engine so they say just about anything to make the parts fly off the shelfs it seems.


Should be a VERY FUN car to drive and the torque should be awesome.

I was hoping for more but that is fine. No oil leaks and it is still running which is good.

Brian and his crew did a very good job today for sure......

Mad sounds awesome man! good to hear she pulled hard!:cheers:
must have been exciting (and maybe slightly nervewracking) to hear it start and run for the first time, but it sounds like its a performer...definatly gonna be a hoot in the dart, and once you stick on the juice, WATCH OUT! LOL
When do you plan on putting her in the car?

once again man good job on it (especially with all the b.s. you went through) it must feel good!
