After 5 months of busting ass the final prototypes are completed...
In the pics attached you'll see the roller cams and lifters that will help to boost the TIV even higher in 2007 and beyond... In one of them you'll see a roller cam thats only 2 degrees altered from it's flat tappet cousin side by side for comparison- they'll be getting tested the same way- back to back.... The roller cam is also only .010 healthier on lift than the flat tappet, but look at how much of a difference the lobes have.... I posted more pics and text over on my forums, but thought that grant and trekkor would like to see these so they could start their bashing before they were even tested.. They'll need the head start.

Greg,
That may be a possibility but a lot of factors add into the equation.. The main factor is just getting the "bugs" worked out of the arrangement.. I already have a customer that will be doing a cross country trek with one of these engines very soon after I get the development completed to a satisfacory level.. Having two dynos will now make long term developments like this much easier as we can continue with business as usual with the old dyno and then use the new unit to keep engines bolted up for months if needed.. |
