Our goal is to get myself and my pops in the 200 MPH club this year and will require a minimum of 4 runs over 205.
It is also my intent to crush all records, in all non special construction classes (lakester and streamliners) in the next higher displacement level.
We are running "H" engines and this allows us to run 1000 to 1526cc engines
The next engine is "G" and allows 1527 to 2000cc engines.
The fastest blown H engine is 205 (ironically this record is in the class we are running)
THe fastest blown G engine is 246.
We have determined with our CdA numbers that it will require 490 WHP to best 246.
Just to break both blown H engine records in our class will require about 250 WHP to go 210.
It may be difficult to break the 246 G record......This was done with an 800-1200 HP ecotec motor. THe next closest blown G record is like 225 so you know this guy was really pushing it for a little 2.0!
For our first runs I am planning on running about 325 HP.....should be good for at least 225.
Here is the motor finished. I am using a Modified Murray sidewinder. This will pull double duty as our NA header and turbo header.
I still have to put on the gate....trying to make as much gate priority mounting as possible.
Here is the big 1507 No2 motor.
You can see the electric water pump in the side and the makings of the turbo motor engine cage to the right under the turbo motor.
Too bad I couldn’t hide the other motor in the car for a few extra horsepower!
