It's Alive !

The clevor is running !

There is still alot to be done and ofcource, with fixing problems others always rise again.
On the 16th of March 2013 the engine got its way to the dyno to be tested at HRS Engine Developement in Weert ( Holland ).
There where some minor troubles with the holley carb we where running but after this got fixed it was running just fine.

The dyno report shows that the peak is not even touched but due to the set up, he kept it under 5500 because the base set, because he did not know the connecting rods where shot peened and thought they where stock and so not safe to run over 6000 as far as i'm told.
Because of the aussie heads we are running you can see that the airflow is superb and does its job very well !

  1. I hope someone informed you,that stock ford forged rods are solid pieces. 6000 is no problem at all as long as they are in good shape . I've never broken a ford rod . In my 302 i raced , i had the limiter at 6800 , only thing i did was arp bolts .
