    Is it true that NHRA mandated drag racing is losing spectators fast and those still watching whether in situ or via TV are also getting older?FOX sports running the show would indicate this.I get why Top Fuel and Funny Car still have some popularity as what beats nitro but Pro Stockers after Nitro rounds sound like anti climax of sorts.Pro stock as class really hasn t seen any evolution as they are stuck with this weird backwards 500 cid push rod engines only.Just watched some Sick Summer week action and those street cars run circles around Pro Stockers.They all look the same as rules mandate new body styles etc.I even saw some Pro Stock drivers complain how NHRA treats them as some filler class and prepping tracks only for 1000ft to suit nitro cars.I started street racing here in Finland 1991 and in 80 s drag racing was huge in Finland.We had over 10 000 fans just to see our national series races causing our ruling body,FHRA(Finnish Hot Rod Association)to run in some tax problems as they raked in a lot of money.They had 80 000 fans to their annual car shows etc.But they soon killed the popularity and especially super popular street car series.As an example,I went to a national series meet and in class C (under 6 liters) there were 48! small block Mopars alone!Stupid rules and just plain stupidity reduced the series in just couple of years to 8-10 car fields.I raced only local series which retained their popularity albeit FHRA trying to get in on action.In 2002 I won West Coast street cup class D (over 6 liters) with my 1964 Malibu SS with 467 bbc,8-71,8:1 comp,totally street legal here and 100% streetable.It ran 9.624/143 as best and ran those times in 100% street trim.That year we had eight 9 sec cars and about ten 10 sec cars.All this with population of 5.5 million.

    Is there a better cam design for a Ford 7.3 Powerstroke Diesel? The Stage 1 Cam has 186 IN, 195 EX, .430” IN Lift, .433 EX Lift, 107 LSA. With a 444 CI foundation with Forced Induction, I feel that 107 LSA is a bit Wide and the Endurance can be reduced to help maintain a decent Idle without sacrificing any HP or Ft LBS of TQ

    The specific displacement for the 6 cylinder is higher than for an 8 cylinder. That means changes should be evident as each power pulse is a larger part of the overall output.

    Want real hp get dohc motor drop push rods and the valvetrain of the 5os. Yes they can make power but never last. Smaller lighter more efficient engines can make big hp and last 10 times longer. This would be like kuds going back to flip phones and speak and spell. Why? Get in 22st century car makers from usa.

  • @davelowets
    @davelowetsАй бұрын

    Nah... want torque? Ditch the DOHC. "Lasts 10 times longer.." NOPE. The 12 feet of timing chain, the guides, and the tensioners WILL be shot before 100,000 miles. Also, I like to NOT have to spend $3000 to cam up my engine, and have to replace FOUR cams and the ridiculous timing setup. DOHC?? 👎

  • @RT22-pb2pp
    @RT22-pb2ppАй бұрын

    Lol stroke does torque not 2 valve pushrods. do you know anything about engines?​ and timing chain on dohc last a goid long time. Old push rod has no adbantage not one over dohc Not mention dohc can rev much higher make more hp and torque per cubic inch. Only race series do.inated by old push rod motors are Nascar and dirt track, neither what you call tech series. Basically stuck in 60s.
