OP windowed his block. No need to worry about his cams any longer.

My Crawford block didn't blow up. That was a stock block with a bad tune.

Delicious tuned it. Same tuner still with no issues besides the low oil pressure below 1100 rpm. So my idle is set at 1100 rpm so the oil pressure is high enough for the cams to work properly.

Here is the latest dyno from 4 March. Remember this is on a mustang dyno, so for a dyno jet or similar dyno numbers multiply these numbers by 17%

Dipstik-sportech · 05-09-2015, 06:07 PM

I assume you're on e85

texasbound972 · 05-09-2015, 10:09 PM

Yes

What was sequence of events

Cam issues , low oil pressure
followed by oil in coolant
then window in block

From what i remember cams not working correctly can be due to fault in cam actuator that bleeds off oil pressure hence cams dont work correctly and rest of engine get low oil pressure generally causing failure, their may not be any cel codes registered somtimes their is sometimes not. But eny cam issues best get it sorted asap

17% is a huge correction factor, that's about the same as the drivetrain losses.

As for the dyno, did you miss my questions above?

What's the boost target before/after the new block? What's the new C/R?

What oil are you running on the new block?

To get the same hp with significantly lower C/R, you're going to need a lot more boost, and it'll spool later in the RPM range.
