I just want to see all the 1000 rwhp blower trucks post up...........:smt102

 

actually, there are some that make 1000 rwhp...but they have been switched to a 4v setup...like JLP's cobra jet truck.

Bird Doc is making almost 1500 at the tires in his shelby with a KB 4.5L

 

Me too.

 

He was being sarcastic, as there aren't any 1000hp blower trucks on here on blower only, nitrous+blower maybe.

 

none?

 

Built 5.4 4v with 4.5L Whipple on e85?
:sly:

 

Probably get the basics out of the way.

JLP block
2.8H mammoth

 

Not gonna happen with the smaller blowers without help.

 

I hit 1000

I hit 1000

Could you be any more vague? These guys are wanting to know setups and you just say you hit 1000. Very informative post there Joker.

Edit

 

Before dmp got his own dyno it made 940 ish blower only, but that dyno is known to show high. But we all know dyno#s don't mean Jack.

 

4v or 2v?

 

Who's truck is this?
I knew once.

 

I believe that's Steve Cooper's truck. Pretty wicked. His name on here is calightning.

^^^^^^^There are a couple but they run forged 4v 4.6 engines and are purpose built race trucks......lol

 

I believe that it is possible to make a 1,000 wheel with a 2 valve, but I really don't know anyone that has actually achieved the number. There is a bunch of 2.6 trucks that are making over 800, so I think it would be possible with a 3.6 or 4.2 KB with the right heads to pull it off. Jeff's truck with the 3.6 might even be there now, can't remember seeing any numbers on it for sure.

 

easier to make 1000 rwhp with turbos vs a blower and youll do it with alot less IATs

 

That not the subject George, it is about blowers, everyone knows the turbo thing.

 

If I was shooting for 1000 with a blower I'd have a procharger on it
A screwtype or roots type just would be too much heat for my likings

 

Could be right George. I still feel like one of the big KBs will do the trick. With high octane you can get by with higher charge temps at the track, or on a dyno pull.

 

Octane will help cover your ass with high IATS your still better off running a setup that doesn't exceed the safe limit IMHO

I still pull timing on e85 past 175iats
High temps still play a roll on aluminum pistons and the cylinder walls

Were over 1000rwhp now and feel as pulling at 175 is pretty safe and not losing any real mph by doing so when temps get that high.

But this is my take and not a huge fan of just dumping high octane without trying to keep temps down...eventually damage occurs

 

1000rwhp is kind of a unicorn number in the Lightning 2V blower game. Jeff is close, as he was upper 800's on "low boost" (for what his setup will eventually run) and only 15* timing.

I should be wrapping up the tune on mine in the next two weeks, and will take it to a dyno just to see. I really don't care what that piece of paper says. I'm only interested on what it will do at the track.

I do feel however, that I have some of the best flowing 2V heads, so it's going to be interesting to see what it will do on the 2.6.

 

:rofl: Unicorn number. I like that.

 

4v 4.0 whipple

 

The highest charge temps I have seen during a pass with 3.70 ratio with the MP is just over 160*. That is 19# of boost, I feel very safe at that temp with 116 octane unleaded fuel.

 

The highest charge temps I have seen during a pass with 3.70 ratio with the MP is just over 160*. That is 19# of boost

what IC mods? Ice was used?

 

The parasitic loss is the biggest detractor from making the quad digit numbers. A big centri would be come close I think and make the least heat. The PD blowers are way more fun on the street due to the low down grunt but they don't pull like the progressive compressors do.

 

MY truck can make 1000 hp at the crank w my 2.8 kb LC if I want to.

 

Pretty sure my engine has 1,000 HP potential with an upgraded blower, the bottom end was built to handle 1,500 HP, but them big blower be expensive.

 

:crickets:

All the "could/should" make 1000hp is just talk until you can show a dyno sheet or blow it up trying.

 

Gotta love it....."so & so COULD make 1000 rwhp" or "so & so SHOULD make 1000 rwhp when he's ready", or the third one is "I personally know of someone BUT I can't say who, and I can't even give 1 detail about what blower or combo"......yeah because it doesn't exist or they don't have proof and they're using the ricer dyno method of adding hp claims for different parts they buy lol

Brad makes over 1000

1000 at the crank easily, but I would love to see a dyno showing over 1000 to the wheels. a stroked/big bore aluminum block with a 3.6 KB is probably the most capable configuration out there to do it for an all-boost blower truck, but I still don't see it making over 1k.

Not taking anything away from Brad or his truck because it's clearly fast as heck running a string of 9.4's which nobody else has ever done before in a street driven L, and Eric's 9.39 was only a single pass, but I just don't see over 1k rwhp in it. Carmelo's didn't even hit the 800 rwhp number (came close but didn't hit it) and he's gone 9.58 in a very similar configured truck except a smaller blower and a non-stroker aluminum big bore instead of stroker SHM big bore. Doesn't take 250+ rwhp more to run 9.4's.

Just look at how much it takes to get from each 200 hp jump..... from 400 rwhp to 600 rwhp, Built motor, twin screw, fuel, etc. Cookie cutter recipe, but a decent amount of work. But now look at what it takes to get from 600 rwhp to 800 rwhp. Not 600 to 700, but 600 to 800. Tons of built trucks make 600 rwhp piece of cake. Quite a few make 700 rwhp when they add big intakes, crank up the boost, work the heads, etc. pretty easy as well. But only a handful are making north of 800 rwhp, and shows you the challenge to gain just 100 rwhp from the 700 mark. That's really taking the combos up there to their limits. Anyone who say's they're making 800+ rwhp and are on a baby soft combo are full of it lol. Their shit, mine included, is working hard to make those numbers. Not on the edge of self explosion, but working hard to earn it's numbers. Now you're talking about making that same 200 rwhp jump AGAIN. A bigger blower, bigger bore, bigger stroke, that'll easily put you in the high 800's and into the low 900's, but I just don't see it going north of 200 rwhp MORE into the 4 digit range on an all-boost, 2v combo.
