Bizarre dyno graphs. I've run 2 stroke Diesels but not spark ignited so I guess I don't quite know what to expect. The little bugger screams, for sure. The exhaust looks pretty clean - is this lubed thru the crankcase like most 2 strokes or is it more or less an Orbital design (2 stroke w/crankcase oil)?

I wonder how much of that screaming is those aggressive tires on the dyno rollers. I'd like to hear just the motor on a dyno.

The graphs are because it clearly took the dyno operator a while to figure out how to get a good RPM signal from an inductive pickup.... not a simple task on something like this engine, I am sure!


Awesome sound, reminds me of a quieter version of the Cosworth DFV V8 I once tuned,

I saw a DFV powered open wheel car at a vintage race a few years ago. That summabitch was ear splitting loud!

didn't see much in the way of cooling..
different, fer sure..
what type boat would have a v8 outboard..
by that time they are inboard/outboard or inboard

Re: Crazy Screaming Video: A Two-Stroke V8 Powered Sand Rail On the Dyno

by that time they are inboard/outboard or inboard

v8 2 strokes have been on outboards for like 25 years

ok, around here, if you need that much power you buy an innie

Competition Bass boats and off shore hot rods sometimes have up to three of those.

anyone know of a build thread somewhere? I like it.

where do you get an Evinrude - VW adaptor?

Re: Crazy Screaming Video: A Two-Stroke V8 Powered Sand Rail On the Dyno

Much like Group B rallying and other excesses of the 80's, this engine was meant for F1 and offshore racing.

Evinrude published a bunch of stuff like this on how to go crazy fast on the water: http://issuu.com/liquidnirvana/docs/...wners-manual--
