I wish you folks would not quote ossuks -- I blocked him a long time ago due to repeated crap like he posted here, but his posts get around my block when someone quotes him.

No, I think the tear down and subsiquent findings succeeded in making him look like a ass. And the Compensation was probably priceless............

No attorney necessary for that

We put an addition to our engine teardown/pumping rule, that the engine in question, will be marked, and be teched by the tech person, wherever, and whenever he decides, stops this bull of protests just to keep someone from not being able to compete, with races being so close together at times.

Looks like cased closed. Just ignore the trolls and move on. Good run by the way, 14th to fourth.

How can an engine pump big? Do they use some device that measures the amount of air the piston displaces from the cylinder?

As far as I know, they would be using the conventional "swept volume" method, disable the valves on a cylinder, and hook into the sparkplug hole, and roll it over a few times, and ck the markings on the glass, but, I've seen them be under, more than over, that's why Nascar has for the past several years, recheck them by actual measuring the bore and stroke. Bob!

I have "no dog in this fight" so I think I can be fairly objective. I've researched info on "Cubic Inch Testers" provided by the manufacturers of the test equipment and independent articles and they all agree on 2 issues. 1. Test equipment errors are always to the small size. 2. If it pumps BIG, it's BIG!.

Don't you have to consider atmospheric conditions? Temperature?Pressure? Humidity? They proved the other night that "pumping big" doesn't mean your motor is over. Unless you're one who thinks a deal was made.
