500hp normally aspirated

[tntoyota]

i wonder what broke on that last pull on the supra? I saw sparks fly out.

I dunno ------- but I bet it cost'em









I'd say rod, frag through the block, AKA TOTAL setback

No they are not. They are pushrod, naturally aspirated motors pushing over 800 hp. But they were based off the ford block, and they are a v8. I know, because i am buddies with the guys at the TRD motor shop that makes all the motors for NASCAR and i asked them.

The story I read in P4WOR basicly said Toyota could not run OHC's

and had to go pushrod in order to race w/ the others (unfare advantage and all)




Now! A half gallon of melted ice cream to the first person that can name 1 Toyota motor that is pushrod that Toyota based the motor on because the others had too aswell, excluding the f series, (cause they could NEVER be race motors) they been around longer than nascar

What would you all suggest for a Toyota engine to get 450-550hp without forced induction? Needs to be 6 cylinders and 4.5L or less and also have aftermarket parts fairly available (not a real oddball engine). Can run high compression and doesn't have to be real streetable since it's for offroad racing. Gots to be a Toyota

Thanks folks.

You might want to ask Michael Waltrip.................................

maybe not

A P or K engine, maybe?

 

[concretejungle]

can't answer that one....but another thing they told me is that each motor cost approximately $75,000!!

Haha 2hp/ci, would not call that a full race engine, many new engines now, usually Japanese or European get, close to, or more than 100hp/L N/A. Would suggest 1UZ-FE and some work to get rod ratio down to get quick and high revving, say 8500+. Would be my choice, if you are interested, check out lextreme.com good forum all about 1UZ, 2UZ, 3UZ etc...
Cheers.

Umm, there are 61 cubes in a liter, so a 100hp/l engine is making 1.63 hp/ci. Not full race.

Ivan Stewart ran a 500+ HP 3vz-e based engine in his race trucks for a number of years. A guy just recently auctioned off the remainders on ebay. Could easily build another one... for about $150K

i dont think you can do it "normally" or naturally for that matter........................
