I dont know if anyone remembers the triggfrie's (sorcerer) Skater. It had 700 + ci motors in it with swedish made blowers. It was a nightmare on motors they were like 2100 hp each but didnt live but for a days. Last I had heard they had major reversion issues with large cubes as well thats why we dont see them as much as on the strip.

I always wondered about those motors. They sure had a ton of high tech monitoring. I am surprised they couldn't get a handle on reversion. I would have guessed valve train issues with tall decks. Are they still in business? . |

because it isn't much more for the parts then building a 598'' bbc,and i can run 2 1250 holley carbs[but i'd like to learn how to tune a efi on a large gas engine,ive allready fuel mapped a duramax diesel-using EFI LIVE],and build a 10.5-1 motor,not to build it on the edge [no superchargers,turbos or nos] and maybe get 150-250 hrs run time ,and most of all i haven't seen this done before
I like your thoughts on what your trying to do. On the other hand what is your fear of turbo's ? I attached a few pictures of one of Tom Earhart's engines. This one had 10 years on the bottom end before a freshen and the valve train is gone through every 250 to 275 hrs. Just for chep insurance. I would hardly call that type of life span on the Edge. You have boost at less than 2000 RPM's so there is no Turbo lag. Anyways just a few thoughts for your research. Thanks Jon |
