Default Re: Shoud I relieve my block

For those that keep saying they would like to see a flathead Ford race engine that makes over 1 hp per cubic inch naturally aspirated on gas, I would like to tell you how simple that is.
First off, you will see the engine and car but you will not see inside the engine. These engines are seldom torn down at the track unless it is for record certification and unless you are a VERY good friend of the owner, you are not going to see much.
To see one of these engines, you must first find out what cars they run in by looking up records set at the various tracks they run at. This is easily done by looking up land speed racing tracks in the USA. There are several beside Bonneville.
When you find where they are running you contact the car owner and find when he is going to run, Then you go watch.
These engines have been around since the 50's so they are really nothing new.
