here is my delimia


now that i have these phat axles i need a new project. i have the new chassis being designed and i am starting to think that my current 4.3 with mild mods is just not enuff power. so here is what i am considering but i am open to all ideas

1. stroking my current 4.3 to build a 5.0 aprox hp 250

2. northstar v8

3. ramjet 350


oh what to do......

 

[crash]

The ramjet!!!!

 

[mudtruck44]

Why don't you stoke the 4.3 and supercharge it with a kit for a 350?

 

[Chrisjeep7]

RAMJET

 

[morpheus]

ramjet 350 !

 

[RedBullJeep]

space shuttle booster...there's a few extras laying around.

 

[blk87K5]

Are you concerned with weight or space?

 

[ItsaCJ6]

All horsepower takes is money so that should be no problem... What is the target weight?

There a quite a few options... If weight is a concern don't even look at the 350.

LS1 it's lighter!

[Weezer]

How about one of these

 

[Hickeyjones]

Only a RamJet could live up to your persona.

 

[Funkel]

Ramjet 502. Go big!

 

[foley]

what happened to the two extra cylinders you swapped onto your 4.3?

A stroker V6 would be cool... light weight power is always cool.

I think that ITSA has the right line though, how much do you want your 250 hp to weigh?

 

[DemoMike]

How heavy are the 5.0 Fords?

 

[JeepinIan]

I second this one:

Remember, the Viper engine is aluminum block, and about the weight of a small block. The Ram truck is iron block, aluminum heads.

If you don't want V10 power, then a RamJet 502.

If you don't want BB power, then RamJet 350.

I would do the northstar!

With a little work they are killer! I think with just a new computer and some headers they make over 350hp. They are a lot lighter than the ramjet too. They also have like a 7000rpm redline That would be way fun in the dunes...

I am going to use one...so figure everything out for me! :flipoff2:
I have some info if you want I can post it or PM me.

How heavy are the 5.0 Fords?

Light. Thats why I'm going 347 stroker. Light and lotsa unneeded power.

 

[ItsaCJ6]

5.0 ford is the litest V8 of the cast iron V8's its like 285.

But I am Sure Camo is thinking exotic...

 

[Dust Puppy]

hey camo have you thought about picking up a junkyard 5.0 there pretty damn cheap and spending some money on it. im building one now, the expected outcome is 325-350 hp (might be more) on air and a 125 shot of the good chit for good measure.

just a thought cause i know crate motors are expensive. and you can bolt a c4 or 6 or an aod behind it (aod if its built right for your crazy ass)

muahahah :flipoff2:

International 392, about a .25 horse power to weight ratio. Plenty of weight to stress that front axle. :flipoff2:
