04-18-2009 03:13 AMYes but that's at 6500. At 5800-6000, where I'm going to have my wot it's at 9.5. The cooling water was starting to get pretty warm in the end of the session so I guess the chiller will do an even better job out on the water. I was very pleased to see that this old blower still makes alot of boost and does it according to the tables on BDS website.
The 856 on 91 (8.2PSI) and 870 on 93 (9.5PSI) is with no knock what so ever.
The dyno guy was pretty impressed of how smooth the engine runs, I guess I should thank RMBuilder for that!
Here's a part throttle pull.

The motor is now back in the Pantera, just a couple wires left. I will do the first tests within a few weeks. Problem is I'm having huge difficulties finding any props to test here in Sweden I have a Merc labbed Bravo 31 and a couple 32's. But I would really like to test a couple Hydromotive's!Last edited by Tomas Wallin; 04-26-2009 at 04:14 AM.

And since you seem to get most of our American idioms... let me just say, Tomas, you are the freakin' man!

04-27-2009 03:11 AMThanks Dude!
Yes, I'm very happy with the interior. I still need to put in a carpet though. But that's about it

06-26-2009 02:14 PMSince I broke #6 piston on the first test run after the dyno (which most likely was my own damn fault since I mounted a fuel flow sensor) I finally got it back in the water yesterday
Had a two hour very nice ride with some easy throttling. Had a couple bursts to 5000 but that's it. I need to get some running time to get all my worries out of my head before I start retuning it. I took away some timing and added some fuel just to be on the safe side for now.
A few pics from yesterday - before I put it in, with the newly painted engine hatch.28 F1 Pantera - Sit down and foot throttle | DPM Drive

06-26-2009 02:19 PMA couple more from yesterday. The cover shrinked a bit when I rain protected it (whatever it's called???) But I will soak it in water and put it on to have it streched again...

06-26-2009 03:56 PMThanks Jo, I do my best! I only need to keep adjusting my props to get it running at it's best. Right now it porpoises and chine walks a bit. I will test a std 28 Bravo next to have something to compare to.
Thanks
It's Mange with his Arrow 830 and another friend with a 24 Baja.28 F1 Pantera - Sit down and foot throttle | DPM Drive

06-27-2009 03:10 AMNo nothing, that's one of the things I will be adding during my testing.
I still haven't been in any seas to mention. On completely flat it want's to porpoise pretty bad bad it only takes some ripples of 1/2 a ft to get rid of it so I guess it will be just fine really.
I'm still at above 20% slip with this merc labbed Bravo 31 that I had cupped and sharpened but it got 7% better from before. I'm on the right track if I can rev it all the way to 6 with the added cup...28 F1 Pantera - Sit down and foot throttle | DPM Drive
