Well it made pretty good power but we had to back out the timing because I was running out of fuel. He said once I find the problem he could probably get 620-630 out of it.
The only thing that bothers me is the drivabilty is still crappy maybe even a little worse. Anything between 2-3k and about a 1/4-1/2 of a pedal it farts and misses. If I floor it, or get past 3k or under 2k it's fine. My fuel system should be good to about 650 but for some reason it not holding up.
He thinks it might be an internal leak in the tank. , I'll save some money find out what is causing my miss and return. I also noticed on the way up that my speedometer fluctuates a little ever so often, who knows? I'm glad it's making decent power. Even though I had to leave a little on the table. But the drive ability is really bumming me out. He data logged everything possible did lots of part throttle runs but nothing shows up? But as soon as I get in real world conditions it starts it's crap.
Well here's the numbers. 598.5HP and 531.4 TQ. Not bad for a little Vortech V1 S-trim. So I guess the patriot heads make power after all. He asked me if I wanted to put 1 more degree of timing in it and try for 600 but I didn't want to push my luck with the questionable fuel system. I'll get it next time.
