More bits for project ' Queen '.
Must admit ive not seen them yet but Mark posted these pics on another Forum.
I contacted Jenvey to supply a ITB setup to support 1000bhp for project 'Queen'. It comes with duel fuel rails to supply the 8off 1000cc injectors.
It has a more modern contactless P&G TPS to replace the Weber PF01.
This is for an engine being built just for fun. Will have to cope with over 50psi of Boost & probably E85 fuel. With old age comes madness .

Heard from Mark last night my new Spec head will arrive tomorrow.
Slightly tweaked ports, new type valve springs & different but Standard size valves. I must make time to get to see these new parts before Mark flys to Vegas on Monday .

Went over to Marks today first time for a month or so. Quick pics of the bits that have arrived. Jenvey, Borg 9180 & the tweaked head with new valves. Mark also had a chat with his cam people about a mild tweak to the exhaust cam. Small change to lift & duration but nothing drastic to spoil the mix we had on the last engine its been ordered. Will push this set up a lot further with extra boost up to 3.6bar.

Wow thats gonna be an animal - 50psi

You'll have to make sure you've got a filter good enough to stop small animals, people and whatever else that is around - that isn't strapped down - from being sucked into the engine

Nothing happens for months & then it all happens at once .
The part we are having made to help with Block integrity is complete & ive just payed for it . Cost a tad more than discussed but its a first for a YB & was a tad more difficult to develop. Will be taking all the bits to the Vibration people to get balanced as a unit after Mark gets back from Sema. Think Mark has other idea as well that will be discussed at the time. We are giving this a good shot lads it wont be easy.
Ive always stopped Mark going for big Power cos I needed to drive this thing to the Darby & Jones club but having two Spec's will i hope give the Tall one a crack at some big numbers. If it fails thats life but if we dont try I think I will always regret it in later years as I consider mods to my my zimmer to make it handle better .

In the car it will have a bw efr9180 running 40+psi in the mid 800's.
What we will use on a Topspeed run is not yet decided.

Using the 19" wheels 8.3K in 5th is 219.3mph we simply wont have the Power to pull that so yes we have the gearing covered. Aim is 214mph which should be possible with 820 +100 shot of Nitrous. Remember these figures are easy to quote but not so easy to achieve so mean nothing at this time.

I bet it's a little nerve racking putting such a high spec engine under full use for the first time!

We achieved 210mph back in 2005 unofficially with circa 840bhp it will take about another 80/100bhp to hit 214 so its not easy but we will give it a bash. Will final map & set up Nitrous at Brunters & if conditions are good theres no point going twice.

Yeh true that, me and a friend came back in a recovery truck yrs ago at brunters trying to push an escort to its limit, and we was getting stressed over 2mph as we hit 148mph and couldn't get no more out of it and we taped up everything for aero and eventually it went pop, so yeh getting a few extra mph is a massive challenge

We have considered a flat floor & a parachute but these need testing to get right.
When the next generation trys to beat these times & they will im sure all these other area will be explored but where do you stop. We go as fast as possible with lots of grunt nothing else really.

As for a theoritical speed we need to lengthen the gearing thats for sure so more Power to pull it so I guess a very romantic 235mph if the fairies visited earth for a day. Striving to get 940bhp to run the length of Brunters is more than a challenge im sure .

Using a Ford YB Block/Head you may be correct. Some see these new alloy Block/Head as being a YB but im sure Ford had no input they are a copy with the warts sorted. If i were to go away from the YB then it would be a v8 or a v10 to get real Power.
