I probably would not recommend trying to accelerate in 2nd or 3rd gear unless you want to warranty his gearbox hahaha 
I'm sure we could muster up enough donations off this forums membership to buy PFS a basic cheap VBOX so you could post up some acceleration figures from this bad boy  |
I can tell you I had over a hundred dyno pulls on the engine before I disassembled it. Early on I was struggling with a few things on this build, one being steel apex seals and being paranoid of warping them. When I disassembled the engine everything looked just like it should. I took my measurements, made my changes, and reassembled it.
If you keep the mechanical, and thermal limits in check what makes you think it wouldn't sustain long term use?
If you provide the VBOX and I will supply the data, but we both know it's a waste of time for a few reasons.
1) 7/8 of the people on here will not be able to effectively interpret the data, and will likely just go along with whatever you say as being definitively correct. This in itself could be because you are very technical, or they fear the possible public confrontation on the forum if they challenge your opinion.
2) Dynojet are unbias, the operator can't create it's own correction factors and or start the loading process before starting the dyno run, there are no sweep speeds etc.. Sure, you and I know that there are more effective tuning tools/dynos then a dynojet. But once the tuning is done and a vehicle is measure on a dynojet those numbers will match when the vehicle is taken to another dynojet dyno. That's not going to be the case most of the time with the other dyno because the operator of the dyno can influence the results.
3) With your capabilities you can easily take the data I already provided and calculate acceleration rates and averages. Whether you want to admit it or not we both know that the power level is exceptional and broad.
and all the Vbox is going to prove is just that, the power is exceptional and broad.
BTW, I'm not sure what the guys age has to do with anything, but don't kid yourself. Old age comes for all of us that are fortunate enough to endure it.
