Holy ИИИИ, theres a lot to be had out of the old pushrod V8's, would have been interesting to see how much it could have made if it didn't catch on fire

Anyone can make tonnes of power with a blower or turbo on a dyno. It seems allot of commodore boys are happy to wack 100psi boost through their hangrenades just to win a piece of plastic at a dyno comp. $20K motor lunched for a $2 trophy, Hmmmmm...

A Boss engine to hold that much grunt will run you around $15,ooo. A big ИИИИoff blower setup like steve's will run you $17,ooo. The article in street machine said TRYHRD was designed to make around 14oorwhp not 2ooo like mentioned. I think it's main purpose is to win pump fuel dyno comps. |

i saw that car in street commodores i think - the thing out the front is the radiato, not and intercooler, and 'allegedly' the car cost 200k or something rediculous...the boot is chockers with a water to air setup, IMHO it would weigh about 300 or more kg than stock...apparently also built to make 2000hp.
1200 is a lot, but its a lot shy of the figure it was built for :S i dont envy that guy. |

My cousin has done a fair amount of work on that car.. and let me tell you its had ALOT more than $200K thrown at it. The cooler setup alone cost somewhere around the $110K mark which is well worth it when the intake temps are measured in negative degrees! I've seen that data logs of this thing and some of the figures registered are unbelievable. The 1200 horses it achieved was probably with the boost wound down to single digits...
