BACK SOON !
Having spent the last two years sourcing or fabricating one off parts and with a massive support from Clive Bond (ford guru) from ULTIMATE RACE CARS, we finally have what we believe is they ultimate big block ford engine possible. with Bryant stroker crank, BME rods, Diamond custom 15:1 coated skirt pistons, jesel cam gear driven by a Danny bee belt drive. This is fed by a RONS 2100 CFM four barrel alcohol injection system with ignition courtesy of MSD pro billet distributor and crank timing sensor. The weak point of the whole ford set up has been addressed by modifying to crank priority oiling with internal manifold in the valley feeding crank mains and by restricting valve chest with by pass tubes and block restrictors combined with a new MOROSO high volume dry sump pump with three scavenge circuits returning oil to moroso dry sump tank. The switch to this new combination dictated re designing the complete front end set up to squeeze in fuel tank new radiator, alternator, water pump, fuel pump and vac pump into the limited space the sierra offers. Due to this step up in performance we have fitted box sills and a funny car cage (to protect marks neck when falls asleep in the rain in the staging lanes) also mark has a new stroud two piece suite and HANNS device courtesy of Andy Robinson race cars we will be running the car on LUCAS OIL as we are now stockists having looked into various lubrication solutions and feel Luscas oil is the best available product.
