Bore = 4.155"
Stroke = 3.5"
Rod = 6"
IVC = 76 ABDC (36/76 - 292 seat-to-seat - 110 ICL)
VE = 100%

cylinder pressure around 47.1" hg @ IVC
Stan
What is the projected compression pressure ?
About 407 psi / 828.5" hg

I'd guess the torque reaction when the throttle was blipped, or even just when it fired if the throttle was partially open, flipped over the hoist. #-o
