Perhaps not a Type 4 version of a "Raby Motor" :-)

QUOTE(Trevorg7 @ Mar 12 2009, 06:49 PM)  the sound those engines make is freakin incredible. I can only dream of what it would be like to have something like that for a lap or 2. |

I think its freakin' scary! My god whata lot of barely contained energy! One long explosion.
I'm guessing it gets pretty, um, tense when Jake has some monster spooled up to major decibel level. |

BRB. I need to go clean myself.
Although I hate the F1 safety car, the counterpoint that the big Mercedes engine makes to the 19,000 RPM F1 engines is sublime.  Throttle response: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1JPBdBIFGNQ...PL&index=51 |

Not only fast, but entertaining too. Although I like Queens version better, not bad for a car. |

I would love to here one of Jakes big guns thundering in a deep low growl.
But until then, check out this nut! http://videos.streetfire.net/video/27-litr...-SD1_169737.htm |

Although I am sure that you have the torque written down somewhere, but to watch the video and see the camera jerk back with each gear change is priceless and makes up close and personal!

That engine made 196 lb/ft of torque at the rear wheels... Just over 230 at the flywheel on my dyno.
I drove it like that for 13,000 miles, then I blew the main shaft in the tranny apart... |
