Hi,I do have some updates. The engine has low compression due to pistons and rings.In fact it will not lock up when ether is sprayed directly into the intake manifold at approximately 15*C/59*F ambient/engine temp.I can only get it to catch by flooding the cylinders with lots of fuel and then spraying ether at just the right time.I still ran it on the dyno last December after sitting over night in the heated dyno shop.
This was one run that made 418whp,It did make 427whp a week or two later when we returned to test it again.
I'll take it to a track in its current condition to see what it does before possibly pulling the engine apart to rebuild.After or during the 427whp run I lost a cylinder for a while and think that there might be an injector problem.I'll pull them to test and hopefully find one that is a sticking or leaking before bringing it to the track.
here is the best 2011 dyno run that I don't think made it to this thread,
