Five
Flags Speedway changes made late model racing
more affordable. The new Pro Late Model Division
gives drivers an alternative to buying a $30,000.00
late model engine and still race in a premier
division. The rules allow late model drivers to
have two affordable engine options.
GM
crate engine #88958604 GMR 350/400 Circle Track
Engine. "Wet Sump"
This
new GM crate engine is very affordable if used
as designed by the manufacturer. Although these
engines will be in Late Model chassis that normally
turn 8000 to 8500 RPM's, the GM crate engine recommended
RPM is 5800. Drivers electing to run the crate
engine can use a Holly 650 HP 4150-80541 four-barrel.
This power plant produced 355 HP @ 5500 RPM with
650 cfm carburetor on the dyno. The only question
about the crate engine will be durability. If
the engines are raced in their recommended RPM
range, they should last a full season.

Can complete your 604 Crate engine.

Iron
Head 2 barrel engine "Wet or Dry Sump"
This
is an engine built by professional race engine
builders. They are quite a bit different than
crate engines in that we can only use a flat tappet
"solid lifter" camshaft versus a hydraulic
roller. Also, this engine is limited to a Holly
2300 two-barrel number 7448 carburetor and we
are only allowed to use unported 23 degree cast
iron cylinder heads, unlike the 23 degree aluminum
heads on a crate engine.
Engine
builders are allowed to use parts of their choice
as long as the parts are within the rules. Looking
at the RPM range and the horsepower (400-425 HP)
these engines make with the 350cfm carburetor,
they can be built for a very reasonable amount
of money. What we have done is come up with an
engine using parts designed for this type of application
and are less expensive those needed to make 600
plus horsepower turning 8,000 RPM's. We are actually
able to build this engine for around $ 10,000.00
and feel very confident about the horsepower and
reliability! For more info CALL 850-477-6468. |
