COOLEST LOOKING 4-banger you've ever seen..let's see em'

The Zetec is mine, Hilborn electronic fuel injection, header, T5 tranny and in my 29 lakes modified. The Offy is a 270 fresh of the dyno at Van Dyne Engineering, 430 hp at around 7000.

Twin carbs it vill be better then one!

 

These are my three favorites....bar none







Oops, I thought this thread was for 4 banger cars not just the engines.

 

Well, you didn't say FORD.

Here's my choice when I build one. A chivvy. With stock cross-flow head. OHV. They ran them at the flats in the day, with minor upgrades. I'll prolly put it in a model a chassis,

 

Very cool pickup with very nice 4 cylinder.

 

Stewart Van Dyne is one of the best engine men alive

 

This is one of my favorites. Some sort of injected midget engine. What are those hub caps? I need a set of them BAD!

Brent in 10-uh-C: other HAMBers should know that the Lingo head is a home-built cylinder head built by John Lingo in his tiny workshop under his house. Builds 'em from steel plate and weld-ells, uses SBC valves and springs, 272FoMoCo rockers pushed by 6cyl p-rods. They make for a nice running 'A' or 'B' banger.

 

The Stewart Family garage happens to be home of the world's fastest Ford four cylinder flat head. I don't have any pics right now but I'll get some soon. Besides flat heads we've also run Cook and Cragar OHV heads and a Rutherford OHC head in our '28 roadster. We hold a number of records at Bonneville.

 

ya know , im kinda glad mine isnt done yet . way to much $$$$$ on some of them . but there are some that are really nice & afforable . i guess afordable is subjective !
.......... great 4's !!!!!!!!!!!!! thank all of you for the insentive !! ... steve

 

This one showed up in me email. Anyone interested should ask 4-port riley for more info. I believe this banger was used to power a lakester to 145 MPH at Bonneville this past August and I'd be willing to bet there's more speed to come.

 

Thanks A-Zonie for posting the pic, posting is beyond my capabilities, but I can build a pretty good banger. It did run 145, on 3 cylinders because the #1 intake rocker stripped it's adjuster and was working little if any. The turbo is a 60's Buick blowing 6 lbs of boost. Im using 2 of the 4 barrels in the carb, on straight alky. Next year will be better!

 

WOW!!!!!!! Screw the V-8, give me a 4 flat !!!

 

Miller Golden Submarine 4 Banger

 

I'm guessing that motor costs more then $30k



lots of good ideas in it, but for that money I'd try one of those hyabusa V8's they are making now.

 

Do you have any more pics of the entire car??

Mike

 

Here's a pic of the lakester (with crew) that the turbocharged banger in msg #113 powered on the salt in 2008.

 

A-zone, don't know if it's just me or what, but all i get is box that says immage moved or deleted/photobucket. Can you post again, i really want to see your lakester. Thanks, Mike
