I was wondering if someone put out a Torque/Horsepower 101 like the compression ratio 101 Tech did. I know the only true way to tell these measurements is to use a dyno but what variables are required for a decent estimate? Is there a formula similar to the compression ratio? I did a site seach as well as a goggle search but the common terms bring up no useful results that I could find. ---Rich
I suspected as much but was hoping you had some magic formula. I guess I'll just build the best engine I can and see the results later. This motor going into a boat will make it tough to dyno and my 1/4 mile times might vary with the ocean current. Maybe try on a new moon? :p On the note of auto tech 101, Anything on cam theory, sizing, duration, matching etc? In case you can't tell I'm an information hound. I work much better on any type of project when I am as informed as possible. Some people are naturals at stuff and do well just digging in. Not me. I run a small computer consulting company and you should see the amount of reading I do as well as asking questions in Tech forums. Thanks. ---Rich
