Allow
me to speculate:
I
suggest that watertemps above 210 are out of bounds. Thus it should be looked
at as something you got away with, not a number to look for in normal
operation. I would retorque the stack cold if I had seen those numbers. (235)
Here
is some dyno stuff for a 12A bridgeported engine with two 36MM chokes in a
Weber carb.
6500
RPM (because there is no point in testing a racing engine below that), and even
then it is to put up a starting point for a curve.
Torque
139.6 foot pounds.
HP
173.3
EGTs
1515 front 1491 rear
BSFC
.666 (the devils own)
oil
temp 162 (160 is ideal) Above 160 costs power due to rotor face temperatures.
Oil
pressure 99.9 (relief set at 110 pounds)
Water
temp is always 180 controlled by the cooling system on the dyno.
Air/fuel
12.3 (slightly rich is fine as it helps cooling and sealing)
I
would expect to get as much as 10% more power from a 13B.

Interesting
questions: Is that data at full throttle?
You
can hold cruise RPM at an A/F of 15?
Today
I ran the engine .9 hour, .7th's static at 4700 rpm - 13B, Marcotte 2 - l
redrive
I
will have to pull the cowling in the morning and check the redrive, it appears
the seal is leaking on the flywheel side. With no support from Marcotte,
I may have too much 80w in the gearbox. I believe that the temperatures
look good for flight. JohnD
