This NASCAR Engine Was Built 20 Years Ago and NEVER Used! How Much Power Has It Lost? (Ford C3)

What happens here

The engine is prepared for the dyno test. This involves attaching various hoses and sensors for monitoring performance metrics. The host notes that the dynamometer used is the same one from previous tests, ensuring consistent measurement conditions. Before testing, a compression check is performed, and the engine is 'fogged' with a high-performance fogging oil. This fogging oil is used to protect the internal components, especially the cylinder walls, from rust and corrosion during storage. The engine is then started and warmed up.

Goal: Prepare the engine for performance testing on the dynamometer.

Tools and materials

  • Drill with Socket Attachment — Turning the engine over for compression check and fogging
  • Dyno Control Console PME Engines — Operating the dynamometer and recording data
  • Engine Dyno PME Engines — Mounting and testing the engine
  • Hoses and Sensors Various — Connecting engine to dyno for monitoring
  • E85 Fuel — Fueling the engine for the dyno test
  • Fogging Oil Foggit — Protecting engine internals from rust during storage

time and and more patient in our approach so how much power did this one make on its Dyno sheet in 2002. 711 711 yeah it's actually made more than the other one okay this will be fun so I ask you what your prediction is or do you already know [Laughter] well I've learned this veteran Dino guys like Dennis know way more than they ever lied on yeah it's just 40 years worth so I like watching stuff go wrong or maybe go right yeah what fuel is it on this time the same Dino yeah now this time you did check compression beforehand this time again and linked it down right yeah man it wasn't like Horrible no not at all stuff was just sprayed in there did a pretty good job so you fog it with I saw how bad it was before we left last time I emptied this entire can in the engine
