I did the entire design and build and the engine was dyno tested and tuned at Jan-Cen Racing Engines in Elma, N.Y. Two time Pro Mod World Champ, Mike Janis was the throttle man for this session while I did the tune up. At the end of the day we made 818 HP @ 6200 RPM and 794 LB/Ft @ 4500 RPM. This was with a flat tappet cam of my design and this engine runs on 93 octane pump gas. As you can see from the dyno sheet the torque and power band are a mile wide. This motor is going into my 1970 Super Bee street car (4000 lbs)

Indy Maxx Block machined by Hughes Engines 4.5” bore. I detailed the block and made some oiling system modifications for supply and drain back.
Edelbrock Victor 440 heads CNC ported by Hughes Engines. I opened the intake ports to Max Wedge size and did some fill in and finish work on the intake ports.
Edelbrock Super Victor 440 intake. I modified and ported this manifold extensively and paid special attention to the interior surface finishes.
Holley 1150 Dominator. I made booster and throttle blade and shaft mods to this carb. During dyno work I did all the calibrations with air bleeds, never cracked open the float bowls.
