Bracket engine, what would you build and why?
Thanks for all the replies!
I am defiantly considering a stroked 400. Reliability, cost and keeping maintenance to a minimum are all important considerations. There are many ways to build a engine that would run 10.xx in this car.
What I want to build is the most consistent. As an example is a 500 + ci. engine at a lower rpm going to be more or less effected by wind changes on the big end compared to a smaller engine at a higher rpm at the same mph? The bigger engine should have more torque per power stroke, but the smaller engine will have more power strokes. Is a heavier car going to be less effected by the wind than a lighter car?
Is a car that is a little soft on the front half and pulls hard enough on the back half to run the same et any more consistent on the big end than a car that is faster on the front half than it is on the back half?
Thanks again!
