I bet you can pick those up right down the street at the CarQuest, right? |
Re: Mesa's Baddest Turbo Power
believe it or not it is a standard size item I'm working with and it can be purchased from the manufacturer and shipped from one day to the other. As far as service life I've had them in drag racing engines for three seasons reusing them and unlike a conventional head gasket they can be reused with out risk of not resealing this is in Pro Import Racing engines were my 3.0 liter engines are making 1600-1700hp . I feel this is the best sealing system being used in the world right now.

Are the water and oil passages o-ringed also?
Awesome power :drink: |

I'm sure its been done before, just I have never heard of it. If not, double brilliant!! Not to mention the sealing advantages |
Re: Mesa's Baddest Turbo Power
What size turbo are you running? It doesn't look as big as you would expect.

On a more technical note, I see it took you along time to get a cam profile to work with a motor, head, and turbo combination that were designed way wrong. Didn't those engines come to you with the o-rings already done? Or did you design that part? Tyson |

We run two O2 sensors on the dyno for tuning only and run egt's in the boat and autronics O2 senor also remember these numbers haven't had race fuel yet. We're currently inspecting internals to trun the boost up with C16 we'll see how the O2's work then. All the power we've made has been on 93 oct and after I posted originally I found the boost gauge I have in the dyno room was off the computer read instead of 15lbs it was actually 12lbs were we made the power

ummm ... yea ... just read the thread ... :drink: |
