Competition is good for the market, it makes for better products and better prices. I hope JC and Tmp are both successful. Maybe when I can afford a custom 1000 hp+ motor I'll have a few choices. I know I'll be looking for the builder with the best warranty and best customer service. :drink:

your over there so much you should see all the testing that is going on >>>>>>>> correct?

but then that puts them down to the JC PERFORMANCE and ZUL'S leauge.

for everyone who was sooooo concerned on the last thread, thats how the 1600's are coming. We are working on both a PSI and 16-71 roots motors, both efi. We will keep you posted. When Dustin gets blowers, we will continue to use them, but we will have alternatives to give our customers now and in the future. We will not release the PSI and roots efi motors until we are 100% confident that they are right. Testing is going on now, so it should not be that long.

Why did I not question him? 1 because Randy Scism doesn't lie and 2 the motors were Sterlings. I realize TMP does not have Sterling's reputation, but they ARE using 598ci blocks, so there's no reason they can't get at least 1500hp out of them, especially with quad rotors.

Now I'm not a TMP cheerleader by any means. In fact when I blew my motor last year I called and emailed them twice with no response. Maybe they don't do rebuilds on Ford motors. Maybe they were busy building their monster motors, I don't know, but for whatever reason they never got back with me.

I just posted this to show they can build the power they say they do.

I assume for reliability, However Randy said he could dial them back up for like a Kilo run. I think Sterling usually turn turns these motors 7000-7200 rpm.

Also one BIG difference between these and all of the stuff I have heard about from TMP is these are big chief heads not conventional.
