successful & reliable WD puller

I got an idea.... build a WD with a Gleaner E, 4 1/8 over flat top pistons, port and polished head, barney cam, carb from treadwell carb in new York, pertonics electronic ignition, pertronics flamethrower coil, E3 52 plugs, governor override cable, and pull the damn thing!!! 110 race gas and premium mix. 60 peak hp, 52 at rated, and 485ftlbs torque, that was with a bad rotor in distributor. I built it when I was 15. First engine I built too. Not that hard. Brought home more trophies then I know what to do with. Pull it, have fun, make friends, and get along.

Carl.

If you need proof I have pictures and videos.

Works pretty good doesn't it. I got a similar one except for a quench piston and the batch of cams was takeing forever to get back here so I put a stock one in timed correctly.

Maybe my big winter upgrade will have to be to a piece of wire as those zip ties fail at just the wrong time. Mid mount 12v beer cooler would also be handy in place of the original battery box. Changeing the cam requires more work than I'm willing to put into it.

Once again superior design from the north.  The cooler is partialy shaded from the sun by the gas tank.  It's in close proximity to the driver for easy reach.  Foot rest doubles as bottle opener for the high class stuff.  The battery is also closer to the ignition system for less voltage drop.

Now rather than bickering like a bunch of school girls, figure out why my 190XT puller makes the chirp....because id love to know!

Yes it does, works great! Yeah, its to bad it broke, you had a good run going! Be neat to see how we do against each other on a good clay track.

What is the turbo?? sounds like it's trying to sneeze out the intake. A custom intake wheel and compressor housing map slots??

Was a 3lm 466, was real bad with that one, now its a garrett off a 250hp IH 466 truck engine. 57mm x 75mm compressor t4 garret a/r .60 compressor a/r 1.15 turbine

Carl , I'm an isx cummins tech and we experience chirping issues when the waste gate actuators were not in sync . So where am I going with this at certain peak Rpms almost like floating the valves the air will come back at an instant and dead head the incoming air causing the compressor wheel to give a momentary stop and go but in   milliseconds time frame. ( chirp). See this on our Taylor dyno at time to time and a truck will hop pretty good on the dyno. May change housing ?http://touch.bismanonline.com/air_compressor_d_45/# Or like the other fellers say get the cylinder head opened up and exhaust ports. Like constipation and asthma theory . Lol. When I drive my beer holders are on my custom orange helmet . Closer and no one will steel them up grade option is Double barrel straws reload is hottie whisker biskit in daisy dukes with boon and crocket rack .

Thanks Bill! Have alot more trophies then that, pictures is a couple years old. But yeah, similar to compressor stall, stops spinning / forces air back out intake and makes the flutter sounds. Thanks for the info.

Marty, we've talked so we are kinda on same page, had to see if your buddy could get it. but I agree, if we could get that 3lm back on it, it would be nice, seemed to have more power with it. Ill definitely have to come check it out. Might have picked up a 301 head from tech school, ill bring it up, other wise ill pull the one on mine, or go to downing...lol either way, them heads are a mess. Wish I could tell you ratio between boost and back pressure. But gauge for back pressure wont read correctly.

Carl I am running 45-50 under heavy load on intake and 40-45 on the exhaust side seem to be working ok would like more hp but then the reliability goes away, You were at most of the pulls when I was going though those growing pains. LOL. And some are caught on video.

Heres a video of it with the 3LM, she sounds real bad with that charger, i was embarrased i even pulled it like that! haha

Carl, you need a 180 exhaust housing to turn your 3lm adequately at your rpm

Ok....

Not at all, just trying to give you some help Carl, but you got it under control.
