Money must be coming in pretty good then! New project and lots of brand new parts too!

Good for you!! Glad to hear things are going well for you! :thumbsup::woot:

I'll have to send this spare food I collected to Haiti! :rofl:

Quote from Engine Article...
 
"THE DYNO DON'T LIE"

"Depending on which carb was used and whether a 1-inch spacer was sandwiched between it and the intake, the CF-71 Freedom Bird's 440 made between 576 and 601 horsepower and between 541 and 551 lbs-ft of torque - more than enough to make Ty Ingle's Firebird Formula 400 really fly when he lights it up." :burnout:

:morepower :lateral:

YouTube quote from TIN INDIAN Performance about the video:

"This is the 440 cid Pontiac engine we built for Ty Ingle's CF-71 Freedom Bird. The engine is based off a 400 cid pontiac block. Pro-Warrior 4" stroke crank and Pro-Warrior 6.8 long rod were used on the bottom end along with a set of KB forged pistons. A Tin Indian Performance custom ground Comp Cams solid roller was also used with Crower solid roller lifters. The engine is topped off with Kauffman Racing Equipments new North Wind intake manifold and a custom Pro Systems carb. The combo pulled 11" of vac at 850 rpm! It made 590 hp and 550 ft lbs of torque."

:morepower

Thanks Eric! Jeff Kauffman and Kevin Swaney did a hell of a job collaborating on this unique 440cid stroker and building it for the car!

Here's another video of it just idling at 850rpms:

Think anyone will buy that "it's just a rebuilt Pontiac 400?" LOL


Okay... One more just because I like to hear it "cackle!" (c:]
