Here it is... Not bad for a car that will be purposely beaten to the point of destruction! Watch it on SPEED in June!
I can't disclose info on the engine as our opposition is watching! |

A man can never have too many guns, knives or cars.... Cars are my life, guns are my hobby!
on a different note: Today we completed the engine and the dyno work.. Tomorrow the engine, gearbox and SDS will be installed, hope to be driving by Sunday as we have an alignment scheduled Tuesday and a chassis dyno session on Wednesday! Not bad for an engine built with most all used parts, except cam, lifters rods and bearings! The cylinders, pistons and rings are well used and i didn't even replace the rings as the gaps were perfect for Nitrous. Nickies are an amazing thing :-) Not bad for an 8.65:1 engine running on pump gas- THIS IS ALL MOTOR!! The 100 shot will be dumped on top of this!!!! I have dyno video and pics but we do not have permission to post them, plus Art still has time to counter us with his set up.... You can hear the engine on the dyno on this Friday's 4th Dimension Radio program, it will be all about the "Blow it up!" project... Yet again, 8.65:1- it's at 200HP by 5K RPM and makes power to 7,000 RPM. It should hold 8.5K revs with the spring package Len set us up with.. BTW- it made this power pulling the cooling fan belt driven oil pump making over 100 PSI oil pressure! This engine has 20+ more ponies in it, we don't need more for the competition and didn't want to wear it out on the dyno! |
