Default Virtual Engine Dyno - FE database thin

I got a copy of Virtual Engine Dyno Pro. I downloaded the latest update off their web site, to make sure I had the most up to date stuff. It had a couple FE bocks, intakes, and cams. No heads, no cranks, or rockers.

I downloaded all the head data from Edelbrock's web site, but it only had flow numbers for heads 60069 & 60079 with the 2.09/1.66 valves. I was creating some cranks and realized I don't even know the journal sizes. So then I'm looking at aftermarket cranks, and they don't even tell you the standard sizes.

I thought before I kept digging, I would ask if any of you have data on FE parts that you would share. I think I have heard some of you talk about this program. I hope you can help me out.

Thanks

Sorry, can't help you...I've got Motion's Dyno Sym...I'm only here because I'm wondering why a dyno program would need the bearing sizes? Just curious...it must be more advanced than the program I've got, but sometimes that can be a disadvantage. Is it reasonably easy to figure out?

Well I don't see why it would need rod & main journal sizes, so I just guessed at it. I don't think it would have much impact on torque.

I was hoping for flow data on more heads than just Edelbrock. Any data others may have accumulated would be nice.

The program is reasonably easy to use, however it asks for a lot of data on the parts. If you put prices in for all the parts it will even tally the cost up for you too. Tell it information on the car and it will estamate ET times, as well.

Actually some of the fields are not required, and the shading difference is difficult for me to see. Journal diameters are not required. I have no idea why they even ask.

My program (commonly called Desktop Dyno or referred to as DD) requires a different program for drag times and another is available where you can put your DD info in for roadracing.
The Scat stroker cranks use a BB Chevy rod size of 2.200".
Did you say you wanted head flow info? All you need do is ask: http://users.erols.com/srweiss/tablehdc.htm

Keith Craft Stage III Edelbrocks:

INTAKE:

.300 lift

.400 lift 270 CFM

.500 lift 318 CFM

.600 lift 338 CFM

.700 lift 355 CFM

.800 lift 375 CFM


Exhaust:

.300 lift 176 CFM

.400 lift 220 CFM

.500 lift 248 CFM

.600 lift 271 CFM

.700 lift 286 CFM

.800 lift 292 CFM

.900 lift 300 CFM

Flatlander Racing only lists maximum flow on their website, but if you ask they'll give you more flow figures for their ported Edelbrocks:

Average Flow Figures 6006(428), 6007(427) Out of Box Stage 1
Stage 1: (6006-6007) at 700 lift with 209 Intake 1.65 Exhaust, 252 Intake 221 Exhaust
Stage 2: (6006-6007) at 700 lift with 209 Intake 1.65 Exhaus, 268 Intake 234 Exhaust
Stage 3: (6006-6007) at 700 lift with 209 Intake 1.65 Exhaust, 288 Intake 240 Exhaust
Stage 3: (6007) at 700 lift with 2.19 Intake 1.75 Exhaust, 315 Intake 235 Exhaust
Hope this helps,

Dan

This is the best info I've seen life-to-date.
