I would like to bring everyone up to date. I will be done with the engine I hope this week with results toward the end of the week or next week. We stay about 40 engines behind so I had to work this project in. I was not trying to offend anyone or any other engine builders by posting or building these engines. As I said before I saw a lot of people paying a lot of money for under powered engines. 20,000.00 to 25,000.00 for a street driven FE engine, heck I said there is some mon ey to be made hear and deliver a better product. I know some people are mad and do not want to believe they spent that kind of money on an engine that is making 100HP less than it should.
This engine of crackers will be streetable and idle at 800 to 900 rpms and last for several years with no problems. This is not that big of a camshaft because when you lash it you end up with a camshaft that is about 250@.050. I have also built several small block engines for Cobras that made maximum HP at 7200 to 7500 and the customers always drove them on the street.
Dave Rodacks car is street driven all the time and he drives it to the track and run 10.20s at 139mph and this is with a hyraulic roller and pump gas. You guys will not believe because you do not want to believe. I also have one customer with a 700HP engine ina 67 Fairlane that does nothing but drive it on the street and in Texas with no over heating problems.
As far as the CNC heads we hand port a port to get it where we want it flow wise and then digitize that port. We will cut the port and then flow it to see if it does what the hand ported port does. We can also make changes to the port with our software. We also have 3 different port designs and many different valve jobs depending on the use of the heads. We keep adding port designs for all types of heads to our library.
Once again this engine of Crackers is not a race engine, they make much more power than this. It does not matter because there are certain people that will not believe no matter what you do. Just bringing a better FE to the market place for the same money people are already spending, if that is bad I am sorry.
We hold to many National Records for my Dyno to be of very far. Redc Leblanc engine just finished, 428 Super Stock engine, cast iron heads, stock compression, stock stroke. 060 bore, Dove single 4bl intake and the original vacume secondary carburetor. 575 ft/lbs torque and 745HP. All engine builders are not the same. Oh it did this at 7500RPM and still making 740HP at 8000. Shift at 8100 and just ran 9.65 in a 3350lb 69 Mustang in the 90 degree weather. Just thought this was interesting, do the math the Dyno is correct because in sea level weather this car will go 9.40s at 141MPH, he ran 138mph in Memphis this weekend.
Cracker hopes to have you some results soon just had to get some engines done that have been hear for a few months. Hang in there, Keith
