New engine for road race car ?

[aggie97]

Through a set of 4.10s
SAE

before/after sn95 cobra cams (degreed in)

Not enough area under the torque curve....but decent.

for example, my 2V starts making 300 ft-lbs at 2900 rpm, has 330 at 3500 rpm, peaks at 340 ft-lbs at 4400 rpm and tapers off to 300 at 5650rpm and pretty linear till 6500. It would destroy that 4V in similar weight cars. 4V cars just don't make good enough torque to justify the additional weight not to mention you have to spin the bejeesus out of them and stuff fails then. The new coyote motor makes great hp but it too lacks on the torque side. Torque is what you want for acceleration. Hp is just a number from a formula based on torque. In the real world operating rpm range, average torque is the number you pay attention to, not peak horsepower. So you look at cam timing and compression to increase cylinder pressure in an overlapping rpm range for each gear. Trans gearing becomes key too when you are looking for those tiny improvements on track.

I'd post the scan but can only scan to PDF.....

you can post a sub 20k pdf as an attachment in a post

scanner's smallest file is like 300k... I'm workin on it.

Damn pretty good numbers. I think I will put together something similar.

What is in that 2v?

What is in that 2v?

Probably pistons, cams, and stuff...

[aggie97]

What is in that 2v?

pretty simple. big bore with dry sleeves, somewhere between 11.5 and 12:1 compression. HPP heads, CMS stage 2 cams and P51 intake. Nothing exotic and honestly over the last year looking at what some 2V guys are doing, I think this motor with the TFS heads and maybe a Stage 3 cam from MHS would put this thing solidly into the 375rwhp range. The problem is I want a lot more..........like 500rwhp.

Anyone need a badass 2V?!
