Just been reading about this Brazilian drag car, going for 1600ho with nitro


"Avelino Queiroz from Salvador,Brazil.I bought from you a Ford Zetec Head.That engine is already done but I had no chance to put the car at track.I stoped running for 4 years.I tested that engine at Dyno and we take about 1.130hp from it with 50psi pressure , no nitro .The car is beautiful.Look at some pics at this e-mail.Now I am returning to competition."

Made me lol

 

50psi ssshhhhhhh dont tell Mat.

 

Oooo i like lol

 

Yea it's a billet block with filled water ways, but still on a standard cast zetec head unlike the other big powered zt,
Don't know how its going.

 

What a mad choice of engine for a drag car!

Fair play though.

 

If he had invested his time and money into a VTEC or a Vaux engine he may of had even better results.

Good luck to him

 

Better results than 1100bhp??

 

Obviously he wants to be different,and 1100hp in any 4 pot is an achievement

 

What's that got to do with the price of eggs?
This is a ford site...... And with a lot of zetec fans I thought it would be of interest!
