Getting close with the BOSS 529 strapped into the Dyno and about ready to be fired up.
We're off. The engine is running, warming up and being prepared for first hard pull
Jon Kaase himself is checking the numbers. He first complements Brent for building a fine engine, followed by the numbers. Jon's key note to use was.... with the pull RPM range of 3400 to 6100 RPM, "the enginge never dropped below 600 ft lbs of torque." That's insane power!!
Here's the final results and the numbers are incredible. Peek Torque of 700 ft lbs @ 4850 RPM and 740.3 HP @ 6050 RPM. What a Monster!
Brent was drilled by Kaase and his team on the details of the build as they really liked what he did with this streetable BOSS 529 build and the power it made. Jon Kaase then took us and his team to lunch while the engine cooled down. Kaase and team contined with build questions to Brent. It was obvious Brent “did good” on the BOSS 529 custom build!
It was a GREAT day!

Up next…. readying the car for suspension and engine install.
