Subject: Re: What do you guys think of this motor ? by jsup on 2008/11/28 3:24:47 They said in the first sentence, the mission of the build was torque, not HP, yet, your post talks about HP. They weren't building a HP motor. They said that. They had over 500lbs of torque from 2000RPMs all the way up the line. Given their goal, I think it was a success. The cam was small, as they admit, and the conclusion was it was an 11 second motor in a heavy car. If success is measured by meeting the stated goal in the mission statement, then it was successful. The article does show how much engineering goes into building the right motor, and picking cool parts out of a catalog is a fairly superficial way to go about it. They were talking about cam bearing size and location relative to deck, etc... |
