Thats right...
We have just broken RAT history again and have exceeded our expectations on the very first pull from a recently developed 2056 combo using a cam that was developed in 2006 and a set of off the shelf LE 200 heads! This engine was originally going to be equipped with our roller lifters, but due to continued challenges we had to scratch the rollers and apply conventional lifters to the engine. The power we have made with this engine using the conventional lifters is basically the same or just a tad more than we were looking for with the rollers, so I am VERY happy. The graph posted below is from the engine's VERY FIRST pull and we know this combo has more potential that will be found in tuning alone as we continue to understand how the combination functions. Now, the most amazing part of this is the fact that this engine absolutely annihilates the best 2270 combos from 2-3 years ago in every way! It makes just as much torque, and more HP that our 9:1 Performer 2270 did in 2006! Last week Charles from LN engineering came down for another round of oil testing and we used this engine for the analysis. After testing 11 oils we decided to pull the heads back off the engine to see if Len can find even more power. We'll have the heads back this week and will get more results. I honestly expect 190 HP from this engine with the changes Len will make and the CR we plan on adding. At 9:1 this engine would run easily on 89 octane and based on the timing settings the engine liked it will love 9.5-9.8:1 CR You can view a short video we threw together from the oil testing on youtube here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FYV8OD8Ohlg&feature=user This one is just days away from being added to my turn key engine catalog... This may be the best cost/HP engine we have ever created and it still has great torque! |

QUOTE Well then, you won't get an order from me. I have seen posts about deposits being made and then the buyer going WTF???? later when the final bill came due and then bailing out... You are not being fair... The instance you speak of was ONE out of more than a thousand transactions.. The guy who flaked out had wanted EVERY bell and whistle imaginable, but blew his money on other things before we got to the proposal.. That wasn't my fault, but he felt that he could convince others that it was- he didn't. That wasn't the bill that he bailed on, it was the PROPOSAL price, the price that would have been EXACTLY what was due in the end. When that instance occurred I made immediate changes to my program that would prevent it from occurring again, that was 3 years ago and it hasn't happened since and never will again. Those on the dark side don't have ordering procedures and have zero organization because they are fly by night, shoestring budget con artists. Thats far from how I have gained my position in this industry and thats why what I create isn't mass produced or cheap... Yet again, you have not followed my procedures to get a price and I won't break these procedures for anyone, for any reason. Its part of the way I screen those who want my work, because there is NOTHING worse than incompatible parties engaging in a transaction this in depth.. Everything here has a procedure including the transactions right down to the crating of an engine. I'll close by saying that I don't make public announcements of price for many reasons, the least of which is sticker shock. I don't want to make one person a price and the next 6 weeks be filed with "you told XXX that it would cost XXX, why is mine more???" That increases my time in the damn office and thats the place I don't want to be... No information is much better than misinformation. This post has been edited by Jake Raby: Jan 28 2008, 10:07 PM |
