quad-rotor 565
Hi everyone! Im currently building a 565 3.3 quad rotor endurance engine, I and am looking for some advise on a few components.I purchased a new World 111 block with steel caps and am having piston sprayers installed.My question is ,Do you think the scat billet crank is good enough for 6000rpm and 1500hp for up to 1hr wot runs.I was originally thinking on the kryptonite crank,but availability was slim.I also wanted to know if the gun drilled pin oiler carrillo rods would be a good choice over the the standard carrs.I spoke to the scat tec person who was very helpful by the way, and he thought their billet crank would be over kill. Any thoughts would be appreciated.thanx in advance!

Hey, I've got a good crank along with 7 good rods and pistons in my 7.4 MPI which has a minor blemish in #1 cylinder where the piston vanished and..........................oh nevermind.

I assure you this is not a joke,but I was concerned about the strength of the rod after it was gun drilled.As for the crank when I spoke to a well known offshore engine builder and racer he told me that the scat stuff would most likely break.

Re: quad-rotor 565
I will be using the afr 357 cnc or the dart 355cnc,we have previously made 1200hp with a similar set-up but pump gas and hydraulic roller.I will be running 116 and 16+ boost,solid roller ect.I race marathon jet boats and some runs can be upwards of an hour long.Just finishing these races is a real accomplishment.One of competitors runs a Jon Kaase 600 cu ford n/a and is rumored to have 1500 hp this year.I wanted to go with a big cheif head but the whipple manifold is set up for standard port configuration.But I have been told that if set up properly this motor can make 1500hp and make it thru the 500 mile marathon....p.s this motor will be going into a 700lb aluminum hull!
