Thread: horsepower torque

I agree with the above the virtual dynos will never get a exact value like a true dyno run, but they have their advantages. I simulated the whole engine in under five minutes to get a good approximation of power output.

I have put hundreds of engines on a real dynos (SF-800 and SF-901) and it takes hours to get the engine bolted up, started and the run-in. And that doesn't even count the time (and $$$) to change out parts. I can do all this in minutes on a virtual dyno.

With your combo, the hydraulic camshaft and 650 cfm carb will keep you from crossing the 400hp mark. I was not sure of your lobe seperation, I guessed 108 degrees.

Pretty large bore there, 406.7ci

Erik, when I type in my ZZ502/502 (unported, stock cam) it matches real darn close.

My useage has revealed to me that the (even baseline) sims these days ain't that bad. In general I would say within 5%-10% across the board. In most cases less than 5% error from reality.

Physics is just physiscs after all ......................

Put a set of the new AFR 195 heads and a 750 cfm carb on it and watch it light up! Gobs of power made with a small cam.
