My high compression 565 has been dyno'd. Power numbers and video inside

[ClivesTriceps]

Pump E85 powered. Was expecting a little more power, but I'm happy making over 800tq at peak.

Going in my 1979 Camaro. Currently at a restoration shop getting body work before going to paint

What transmission and rear gears are you putting behind it?

I do get the impression that something is choking it slightly up top - your comment on expecting more power is in line with this.

No restrictions up top. I was expecting more power because my builder told me I should be in the 1000hp range. Without running a vacuum pump, a bigger cam, and a spacer, I got a reality check. I told him I wanted an engine that was going to be on the street and strip, so I had to compromise. I put my expectations too high, but I'm not going to complain about the power it makes. I'm eventually going to have it rebuilt to do a procharger, so it's more than enough until then.

I'm running a TH400 and 3.50 gears with a locker

Nice. What is your compression? I'm at 10.3 which is a good spot for pump 93. What block base makes a 565? Is it a stroker? EFI?

14:1 compression on pump E85.

Dart block, 4.6 bore, 4.25 stroke

It's carbureted. Has a 1250cfm billet dominator from DaVinci

Dan DaVinci is literally in my backyard and absolutely knows his $hit when it comes to carbs...

Big Boy is making some steam... I make a little more than that to the tire with a big ass Whipple lulz. But you arent beating the driving experience of a 800hp+ N/A big block

He's a nice and smart guy. He runs an e85 powered 598 in his camaro, he knew just how to build my carb.

The 565 will stay N/A for a while, I have plans to lower the compression and throw boost at it in a couple years

I used to work at a driveline shop with a dyno. Guys would bring in high dollar BBC boat motors all the time.

That thing broke more hearts than a big titted redhead with daddy issues.

How close was the carb out of the box? I spent good money on a pro systems e85 carb and it legit was a ****ing mess. No jet change helped was just so far off

Didn't make any changes to the carb out of the box except set idle speed. My carb builder has a similar setup to mine, so he knew exactly what spec to build it to.

Dan DaVinci is a great guy and knows his șhit about carbs

Fuark the dream. Slap on carb and not do ****. Just keep it drained if if sits or the float area gel up. At least mine did, and quick
