we built a few like this ^^^^^ in college with a little more power, we put down about 2500 horsepower, for a 2wd pulling truck called the IRISH CHALLENGER, the teacher we built the engine for also co-drove the truck and built the truck for the owners.....and what i wouldnt give for one of these puppies.......a 950 plus cubic inch Sonny Leonard mountain motor......

I like the one with the super charger on it, but those turbos screaaaaaaaaaaam

 

its awesome to spin a 2500 horse blower motor to 7500 RPM's and watch it sing......

 

...And then let off the throttle all of a sudden

 

no........not a good idea...

 

 

good lord man!

 

if you back outta it with a load it isnt so bad, but if it dosent have a load on it, it will belch, pop the cover, and throw the belt.....if it has a cover, if not, well it pops the blower off the manifold and that usually costs money.......ALOT OF MONEY........

THE IRISH CHALLENGER






LOOK AT THE FRONT BUMPER IN THE FIRST AND LAST PICTURE, YEP, MY ALMA MATER, UNOH........
