600hp was fun but boring. Going bigger!

I finally decided to buy a built engine. I bought the one rpm-inc had for sale over on PSN. Built by Carson Stauffer. It has all the cool stuff. I go to pick it up this weekend. It should be able to handle the 400/400's! Also ordered flexalite fans and a nitrous kit. Also gonna take my trans back to BTS and have it gone through and checked out. I'm pretty excited! I'm hoping to get pretty close to 4 digit numbers!

You need to burn the fuel in the cylinder so it isn't burning as its exhausting - because if its burning as its exhausting out the valve... well lets just say the valves can only take so much heat. LOL I have a handful valves in the shop from doing that on fuel time and time again.

That looked like a nice built engine and a good price! Glad you got to get it!

I'm running Brian Jelich's tuning for now. Matt thus is why I was trying to get a hold of you the other day. I want you to come up and live tune it for me.

For now I'm just waste gating my GTX4294R and spraying the **** out of it. I'm going to run it in my white truck for a little while till the race truck is ready for it. It'll end up being a 4,500# 78 F-100. When I do that I'll be running a top secret Irate built turbo setup. That's all I'll say for now!
