New 622 C Head build

Are you going to dyno it?

We have talked about it , but with the amount of overtime i have been working and finding the time i am leaning towards not dynoing .

It would be interesting to see how this compared to mine with a single 4 on gas vs. this on moonshine and a tunnel ram.

I was planning on running gas , its hard to stomach that when i can can buy 4 drums of alcohol for 1 drum of gas though lol. I will just have to see what the engine likes best i guess and go from there.

Injected gas will be interesting too.

It works good too Blake and Lee saw that P51 engine run on injected q16 at music city , it run like champ .I am gonna guess this one will like gas better with that long stroke .

With the runner volume and port velocity of the C head, the Q16 will be the better choice.

We took it out for some shake down runs yesterday with the dds . They run on 4.89 index had a little timing pulled out and rich tune up with single cast manifold on alcohol. It sounds a lot more crisp on gas but I wanted a little data on alky before running on gas with the injection . Packed the front end about 70- 80 ft out and way to high gonna have to make chassis adjustment , 60' not off front tires let put it that way .

Yee haw   

Congratulations Randy

  Looks like J Y Kelly will soon be deep into the 4.80's

Happy for ya JY  

So whaddya figure the 60' clocks would say if the nose gear had been closer to the ground?  

Thats hard to say Maverick . I just put a redneck fat tune on it didnt even change nozzles from the 562 and last years slicks were on it with about 80 or so passes. I trimmed a little fuel and it started getting mean . It still seemed lazy on the alcohol , i started it on gas and run it through a few heat cyles . Gonna try and get some new shoes on it and switch to 4:30 gears from the 4:86 this week.

  did you change converters for this setup?

Not yet , in the past my converter guy has always said try it as is so they know where its at. It dont seem real loose though maybe just a touch , now i did switch to a 9 1/2 with the 562 c head engine back some time ago .

Maybe the one you have will work.I've chased my tail with converters to the point I dont even want to go back to the track.

Very nice build! Just curious, what's the bore for this 622? If the crank is 4.75 I'm coming up with 4.5675? ??

4.56" bore

The car weighs 2500 and some change , it aint had the wick turned up on it yet . Just made 4 passes on it and 2 of those were to make sure it was plenty rich to keep from huring it .
