Look at that bad boy!! DAMN thats a lot of work! We are only .5 day behind schedule at this point and looking good for completion, unless we hit some stupid snag! before you ask- Those are heads from engine Plus, I didn't mind blowing them to bits and they were pretty much ready to bolt on.. This car can be in the 9 second range on the bottle with a 100 shot!!! |

Yes, We will be campaigning the 550 at Drag events, autocrosses and even some road course events in the future... With a swap of gearing and tires the car will be a multifaceted race vehicle.
The oil system does utilize a belt driven 3 stage massive dry sump oil pump... Its used for many purposes, primarily to keep up with the open clearances inside the engine and to provide a fully evacuated crankcase with negative crankcase pressure (vacuum) the engine is apart for repair and further development. 300HP N/A is just around the corner- it made 244 with less cam and only 8.6:1 CR on pump gas.... I have 7 cams to swap into it over the next couple of months. |
