Is 60HP possible?
The wheels are turning. The go ahead for a 60hp monster has been given. Mostly one off prototype parts. Its bound to be a spectacular triumph or another page in the halls of destruction. Timbomoose has been requested to come up with a special super stroker far beyond the norm. I am getting goosebumps just thinking about it.
Although its not official yet I will be willing to bet that my record has been broken and the 60 HP goal has been reached.
I recieved an phone call from an excited Timbomoose . He says the 495 engine I help him build on my PA trip has put out around 4 more horse than the 505 engine on a local dyno. The 505 was putting out 54.5 on Mike's cycles dyno last year before the new injectors.
Hopefully Tim will get a chance to make the trip to put down an official number soon. It took some time but he was able to get some good maps made for the Harley injectors . Congradulations Tim.
It looks like the CP piston project was worth the risk . Lets hope that mutant intake camshaft holds up for a while.

The intake looked like it was either a prototype or unfinished early cam. The water pump snout was the wrong length and didnt fit the seal ID's. Tim whipped it into a finsihed cam on the surface grinder. We had to use it because all the rest of our cams were getting hardened. Even the lobe profiles looked different.
Who knows it could have been a factory reject or something.
