Who Has Created The Most Poweful Cosworth In The World?
I thought it was MAD as I read a quote in someone's Signature which stated the following;
MA DEVELOPMENTS - CREATORS OF THE FASTEST AND MOST POWERFUL COSWORTH YB ENGINES ON THIS FORUM AND IN THE WORLD Just curious really, not after an argument, so don't reply if you are. Benni. :top: |
Oh dear, to early for this
How comes your up so early wet the bed? |

Good question Benni, I hope it stays on topic.
I have no graphs or data to back any of this up, but i'm sure I saw a claimed 1092bhp a while back? Though this was disputed in a recent thread. Either way, speaking non-factually (so therefore pretty useless) it is the highest I've heard of. Steve |

Steve lots of people claim things .... theory and practial are slightly different ... would be nice to see a claimed high powered engine turn out to be lower BUT still deliver the results ... now that to me is a good builder.... and as soon as it does go south the thread will be sorted out .. |

Julian Godfrey produced several 850bhp cossie lumps for John cross's rally cross cars
|
972 from Jenspeed, Norway ?
|
What cc engines we talking here?
|
Should think its one of the scandanavian companies for most power seen briefly on a dyno, thy seem to love a bit of that over there.
|
that blue escos from greece claimed 1158bhp:?
jens at 921bhp? |
i was gonna say was there not one in norway sittin about the 1Kbhp mark??

Are we talking drag engines or street engines with full boost below 4.5k, you cant have both. Think Julian is probably leading the way in the later with 879 bhp a figure that we will be chasing on Friday. The Scandys build 1.8litre 10k reving drag engines with Power approaching 1100bhp, Never seen one of those run full Power in a car . With the gas we will be approaching that 1100bhp & will be on the rollers to prove it.
|
I hope you beat his figure Rod; would be fantastic for you and MAD. :)
|
im curious to know what octane fuel people are running to get these supposed figures
|
aaah rod, you are forgetting, without full tuv approval those roller figures mean nothing lol
|
In respect of rod's quote above, would the 1.8 engine be designed purely so it could rev to those much higher numbers?
Either way, theres some massive numbers being talked about here! :shocked: |
SSomebody correct me if im wrong but im sure I once read that Karl Norris' 3 door was smaller capacity then standard?

They are not supposed figures if all you want is Power, mine is still very much a compromise to aid drivability, relatively small ports (way below 27mm) mild exhaust cam & standard valves. Power is not a problem but difficult if you want to drive the friggin thing. |

Thats true but we are ringing Mr. Scargil to get TUC approval & hope this will be OK. |

Probe engine by Julian Godfrey, its not a Scandy screamer & around 880bhp, maybe a tad more now. |

Me!!!
:cry: |
godfrey used to build cosworth yb engines years ago but they weren't the fastest,they were scandanavian, he built rallycross motors where absolute power was required and his wern't absolutley fast
|
There was an engine on display at autosport a year or 2 back that was claimed to be over 900bhp, jems i tihnk the comany was called i did have a pic of it ill see if i can find it.
|
my brother had a 750bhp alfa which had a cossie lump in it it was also in max power this year. if anybody saw it

Phil used to always mention Julian Godfrey so I assumed they was the most powerful until I read the above quote, as by their own admission they are barely ever wrong so I didn't think they would post something in their signature which was not correct. However, the signature has now changed and does not state they are the most powerful, just the fastest. I know MAD are the fastest, but are they the most powerful? Just curious really, not after an argument, so don't reply if you are. Benni. :top: Road fuel, Race fuel Methonal, and any other concoction all this makes them difficult to compare, The answer to the question is I have no idea. Mark |

If it is meant to be mine (I think that is what mine used to say but cant remember the exact wording), I havent changed it at all, its been how it is now since it was deleted by Maria last week. You seem to be confusing "most powerful" though with "highest peak BHP figure" to me the most powerful one is the one with the biggest area under the curve, so that is what I was referring to, and the biggest Ive ever seen is Rod's in this respect. |
