Roe TMTS Dyno Numbers

Reply to prior posting

Thanks for the comments guys. To answer some previous questions, Sean Roe was consulted on a daily basis over several days of dyno tuning regrding why I could not get any more hp out of the motor. David Weaver, an experienced Viper tuner did the tune. He exchanged several run logs and many telephone calls with Sean in getting all the hp that was available out of the Roe blower. The pulley is a custon billet pulley designed by David Weaver to keep the other peripherals turning within manufacturer's specs, but greatly increases the boost. We started to run lean at over 650 hp and had to add the 65 lb injectors and the Walbro 255 (cheaper than a complete new fuel system). My calculations had led me to believe that all of my mods working together would result in close to 775 hp, so I was a little dissapointed with only 695 hp, but the torque does rock,:rock: :rock: and yes, it is a blast to drive. I will post track vids soon. I have posted a few various build pics below. I have learned a lot from other members on this forum, so I hope my posting gives a little back. My favorite single mod is still the Gen X shifter. Everyone here should buy that first.:rock:

Wonderful pictures...so helpful.

How do you like the sound with the cut-outs open? (My next mod!)
 
cut outs

Prof, to say it is very loud with the cut outs open would be an under statement. Sounds really cool at lower rpm, but wide open throttle is outrageous. Warning, dyno runs with cut outs open did not make any additional hp, and lost torgue. But my exhaust system is equal length long tube headers 3" all the way through to the tips. Bought from FstJack 3 years ago, built by Richards Performance Muffler for Jack's Silver truck (before he changed his mind on the build direction), so the cut outs don't really help me. Maybe if I could figure out the venturi issue at the tb, the cut outs might help exit out the hot air.
 
Dude those pics are sick!!!!!! Love em! Good to see the you got some safety in there too with the driveshaft loop thingie. Best shot I have ever seen of the Caltracs. Exhaust cutout is sick......talk about Nascar loud!!!

thanks for sharing...............posts like this are why a lot of us log on everyday!!!:rock:

I take it the Catch can is just laying in the Battery Box correct? Where do you plan on mounting it?

I have always wanted to know if you need to mount it lower than the Valve cover vents or does it matter?

I have not gotten a drop of oil out of mine, It is mounted higher than the valve covers and has about 3.5 feet of hose running to it. Think that is why?

Just curious!!

About to hook mine up too...wondering the same...
 
JMB catch can location

The catch can is mounted a little higher than the valve cover vents. It is mounted on the passenger side of the radiator bracket in a preexisting threaded hole. After about 50 miles of driving I drained about 5cc (a few drops) of oil out of it. I will post up some pictures soon of the way everything looks in the engine bay now that it is comlete. Heat shield boots on the spark plug wires, the billet lower pulley and final location of the JMB catch can. If anyone knows where to order lug nuts that will fit the American Eagle 058's let me know. My M&H DR 390's are mounted and ready to go on so I can take the 700hpOdyssey to the track. :rock:

Have you connected both sides to the catch can and are you using the Roe Breather Filler cap?
 
Both valve cover vents are connected to the catch can and I have not yet used the Roe breather filler cap. I did buy one and I do plan to use it. It just got misplaced in my huge pile of old oem, and new but not used (Fidenza and Diamond Pistons) parts. When the truck is idling, quite a bit of huffing comes through the catch can breather. That is why I do plan to also use the filler cap breather.
 
Has anyone routed all three breather ports to a catch can?

i havent ive got boomers valve covers with vents where's the 3rd port at?
 
I am referring to the two ports at the rear of the valve covers and the breather that some of us have added to the Oil Filler port...for a total of three possible contributors to the catch can. Sorry I should have been more clear.

Roy,

I am sure it could be done, just another t connection!!
 
That's what I am thinking...it is another source of oil mist that could be controlled. My mind tells me (this is not a good start) that there might be some chance of moving the spray from one port to the next rather than directly to the catch can. So my initial thought is to move all three port outlet hoses to a place close to the catch can...then use a three into one junction to feed the catch can...what are you thinking?
 
What was mileage before build and what was condition of cylinder walls. Any work on them?
