Have to get a block ready for Joliet 2 weeks from now.
I figured, full race cam and some nitro should make 8000hp

 

guessing a Top Fuel motor? whos is it?

 

Mmmmm Nitro

 

TJ Zizzo

 

Awesome! Don't think I've seen him out this year?

 

Zizzo qualified 9th at Atlanta 2 weeks ago, went to 2nd round before being eliminated by Larry Dixon.

Zizzo is not John Force, but we do work for him and support his team, it keeps us well rounded to not just work on the same pieces everyday.

 

Try to take pics and post them when your done! Looks awesome.

 

Really? Hmmm I know he's been around here and there throughout last year and this year and so on guess I just missed him. Always great to get the "unknown" guys out there though!

Goodluck to you guys as well as Zizzo

 

I'd love to get a look at the pistons

Ring pack specifcially.. be interesting to see how those motor's have the rings stacked and whatnot.

 

They are more basic then you would think. The parts are only in for a few runs at most and at $50 each the pistons are really throw away parts

 

no joke? you would think everything on a top fuel motor would be insanely expensive. thoes are cheaper than a good set of forged pistons for an LS1.




and i agree, they are pretty basic, the most impressive part of a top fuel motor is the cylinder heads.

 

dam thats a perdy block

 

I love Top fuel and know a little bit about them. they are pretty simple the heads are crazy you can roll a golf ball down the port, which makes me laugh for some reason. some nitro and 50 pounds of boost **** just goes crazy.

 

You should run a 3/4 race cam since you guys only run 1000ft now

 

Thats some crazy **** their

 

Ni kidding, that's a good bit cheaper then I'd have thought the pistons would be.

At 50 bucks a piece no wonder teams don't mind changing them so much

The heads are also an interesting topic, as stated above. Be neat to see what really makes one of those monsters tick.

 

When your John Force, you can set your price on pistons. A test batch order is at min 200 pistons

 

fuel cars run off sheer volume of fuel for power.... you guys would prolly be suprised to see just what their AFR is....

 

.1 to 1

 

What is their A/F ratio?
