Hot Rods 700 hp Flatty 1

Boosted Ford Flathead V8 Makes 722 HP With Rare OHV Swap (msn.com)

 

Except it is no longer a flathead with an Ardun conversion!

 

Amazing what happens when a bunch of boost is involved...

 

Just a box with lot’s of gold stuffed in it.

 

Pretty impressive for a flathead block. I wonder if it will hold up.

 

Was watching it earlier today it's amazing that old three main block holds together Henry did something right with that one just a slug ya right.

 

I think the trick is the way the procharger delivers the boost. They seem to be more forgiving that a roots style blower? Just my thoughts. Chick has one on the Salt Circus roadster (302 GMC) that I hope to study next season

 

Makes sense still that's a hundred year old technology.

 

Thanks for the link. I wonder what the rest of the graph looks like? Regardless, the Dorton crew is top notch.
