rl Posted October 10, 2005 Report Share Posted October 10, 2005 Smackdown, its mainly a mustang event, but they would let you run (a bunch of us rent the track, kinda like cofba day but larger, magazine coverage etc) http://www.corral.net/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=76 Limited tech inspection (I go faster then 11.50's without a roll bar too) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coltboostin Posted October 12, 2005 Report Share Posted October 12, 2005 Is the pushrod thing sarcastic b/c he has an RX-7 as his car in his sig? Either way, what is it and what does it run? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinman Posted October 12, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2005 Is the pushrod thing sarcastic b/c he has an RX-7 as his car in his sig? Either way, what is it and what does it run? It has a SBC, hence pushrods, and it would knock your dick in the dirt if you would bring your car down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a ninja like 7. It moves so deadly fast it would slaughter you before you could react.

owndjoo Posted October 12, 2005 Report Share Posted October 12, 2005 i'd like to see that race. the colt vs. the sbc rx-7, from a roll ofcourse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash1647545504 Posted October 12, 2005 Report Share Posted October 12, 2005 that would be a good race Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coltboostin Posted October 12, 2005 Report Share Posted October 12, 2005 Since Tinman does not fell like posting what he has, what is it a SB in an old Rx-7 body? Wow, thats original, and cool at the same time. Hated by Mazda people for taking the Rotary out, and not loved by the V8 croud for putting a V8 in a stupid import. You would need near 1000whp to knock my dick anywhere. Trust me the experiment on what it takes was already conducted. We'll see how Sam does against you.

owndjoo Posted October 12, 2005 Report Share Posted October 12, 2005 actually the sbc rx-7 swap isn't really that original. there are quite a few who do it for road racing and a few are drag queens as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope you up the size of your snail a bit, or barrow a certain supra Cubes are still the basis of power, whether you like it or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owndjoo Posted October 12, 2005 Report Share Posted October 12, 2005 i'd have to say that cubes are more a source of torque, even more so if the cubes come from larger stroke. and that cfm+fuel is the overall equation for power. although cubes start with higher flow, it's pretty easy to surpass that with smaller engines that have fi. although a big ci motor plus fi is the best bet. so no matter how it happens, just flow more and you'll make more.

Lustalbert Posted October 12, 2005 Report Share Posted October 12, 2005 Cubes = torque. torque over rpm = HP make tourqe, then sustain it over a wide rpm band = lots of area under curve = lots of available power Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
