Watching tractor pulls on ESPN2... The big alcohol-burning beasts are running three turbos, multistaged, pushing up to 100lbs of boost.

no need for a cooling system on a 1/4 mile drag motor... Look at pauter...he has some 1000hp motors... They are a one shot deal...but if you win, its worth it I suppose... Rich |
