Wow, what a great way to start my first blog post with! Today I received the December 2010 issue of PHR magazine (Popular HotRodding). Why is that significant you ask? Well for starters it contains a six (6) page article featuring our 471 low deck Mopar we built for the 2009 EngineMasters Challenge. But it's 2010 right? Yes it has been a long time coming indeed, but it is here and it is quite a thrill to be in a major automotive enthusiast publication. Hopefully with the article creating awareness we can sell this monster which has been slightly detuned for a less intimidating demeanor. It is now wearing a Edelbrock SuperVictor 383 with a single Holley 1000HP carb, on pumpgas and through the mufflers it "only" makes 656 HP @ 6600 rpm and 612 ft/lbs @ 4300 rpm, and yes I know that a powerband of 2300 rpm is VERY unusual. Hey I didn't expect VE (Volumetric Efficiency) to be 105-107% either, but it is. Like I said the very same engine in the article is still for sale and is an outstanding example of an engine that could put any B or E body in the low 11's if not 10's with ease. Oh and the best part about all of this magazine business is that we have another feature coming up in the same magazine which puts the spotlight on our EMC 2010 engine! Pretty neat huh? J.Rob
