Hey Tim the numbers are up from last year so overall I'm happy.

Re: Dyno testing the Flathead for Speedweek
 

Great news, Ron. Can't wait to hear how you guys do this year.

Re: Dyno testing the Flathead for Speedweek
 

Thanks for sharing Ronnie . . . looks like you're ready to go EARLY - a great position to be in. Best of luck, go fast, be safe and set some records!

Question: What transmission are you running in it?

Are you going to be able to provide daily updates from the track?

Re: Dyno testing the Flathead for Speedweek
 

There's usually a good post underway on the HAMB with daily results. I'm going to be to busy trying to get the record bumped to get results out on the Barn daily. Besides our Rear Engine Modified Roadster were also running a 34 roadster with a supercharged ARDUN my son will be driving the 34 and if things work out a second driver for the 34 will give it a try as well.
Running the second car will pretty much take up any spare time I might have for posting. We might be crazy trying to run two cars but heck you gotta be a little crazy to do this fun stuff anyway. Good thing its called Speed WEEK we may need all of it this time.

All times are broadcast during the day from a radio station in the pits and daily results are put up on the SCTA/BNI website at the end of the racing day.
The station in the pits also broadcasts on the internet. Frequencies and URL's are announced well before the meet.

Re: Dyno testing the Flathead for Speedweek
 

I gotta ask, can you give us the RW Hp and the engine rpm?

Re: Dyno testing the Flathead for Speedweek
 

Fantastic! Keep up the good work!

Re: Dyno testing the Flathead for Speedweek
 

There are some things I wont give away. To get a stock block flathead to put out the power needed to run 200 MPH burning gasoline has taken my son and I a whole lot of time {years} experimenting until we found the sweet spot for reliability and the power needed. So I hope you would understand for now I will keep some stuff secret.
