II 14mm Pump

480V 3 phase good rule is 1.25 amp per HP. So 125 amp service. It isn't an across the line starter either. On a VFD I am sure. At 220 I imagine it is less than 250Amp. Depending on the age of the pump stand it might even be a DC motor.
 
:hehe: :hehe: ...this is great...we run a Caterpillar 3406E for our test stand...:bang :bang ...come on guys, I know I'm new to the world of pump building, but a 12 valve for an engine and a 100 hp electric motor???

I think things are being stretched a little here...the stand "we" use is a 20 hp stand and it will run everything...granted it will NOT run the sigmas and billet pumps anywhere near 5k rpm...but it still works for calibration...

edit 1: the only reason for being able to run a sigma at full rack at 5k rpm is to try to stick b&p's...and to dim the lights in every building within a block or two...:hehe:

So no one is going to verify the HP of II's test stand?

Sorry Tom, I know it will pull a 13mm pump to 2500 pump rpm and 715cc's. They have it for the bigger pumps, not our little street pumps.

No,,, nothing being stretched about the 100hp motor, it's there to turn the pumps as hard as they are turned on the engine so we can insure the customer gets the fuel they were told, and also ran the the same size injectors that the customer uses.

Come on Zach, you can't be serious about that 100hp stand, that would mean if you put anyone elses pump on CDS's stand, there pump would make 400cc's less than they were told.............:hehe: :hehe: :hehe:

Tcolesanti statement!

500hp on an anemic street truck or pansy drag truck would only need about 375cc of fuel.

I drove a truck recently that had a pump set at 320cc's and I'd doubt it would break 500 hp.

I was joking Jim. I said that to get Joefarmer riled up.:hehe: :hehe:

The gaping plasma cutter scars are still at CDS where the frame of the pump stand was cut to replace the 50hp motor with the 100hp version. :evil

LOL thanks Tom!

Joking or not your numbers are close, I figured my 887 would flow around 400 and I now thing that it is right on.
