Studebaker on the Dyno

Post by EK283 »

Hi everyone,

Blew the cobwebs out of the little old girl over the weekend, going to run it on the 15th this month at Wakefield Park

Hope the EK ( when I finish it ) performs as well as the little 283 chev in the Studebaker.

Hi Guys,

Not blowing my own trumpet but that little engine sounds unreal :D :D :D

The motor makes exactly 300 RWHP give or take a few depending on the weather, not super powerfull but it does like to rev.
I normally limit it to 7200rpm, on the dyno it was just starting to crackle at 6800rpm, damn shit points (fixed them in the end).

Anyway just thought Id'e share something a bit different

Took the old girl for a run at Wakefield park Goulburn.

Apart from the river across the track it was fun and the car loved the cold air !!!!!!

I know its not an EK but for some reason I just love it !

Anyway I had a run at Eastern Creek on fathers day at the Muscle Car Masters.

Suffered from not much grip on the slightly wet track, and it was the first time I used a go pro camera .

Had a really good start but went backwards from there, oh well thats motor racing.

Enjoy,
