RoadCone going to Twins!!

[RoadCone]

Well 2024 is here!! Changing the whole combination up and going to Precision Twin Turbo’s. 72/75 with billet wheels and ball bearings. TKM did my Bear block and JPC built a motor that should handle whatever we throw at it. Transmission was updated and internal and external dump valves and a new Pro Torque converter to handle the power transfer. Here are some pictures!

what was the PB with the previous two setups? Was there two different Whipples or more?

7.9@178mph weighing over 3900lbs.
I started out with 2.9, then 3.0 and last one was 3.8.

I’ve been working on that for years lol

Pictures look great!
I'm definitely looking forward to seeing this build and end results. I didn't even realize billet cam caps were available, but they look very beefy for sure. Sorry I haven't read up on your other posts about the car, but what transmission turbo 400 or Powerglide? Definitely appears you have put the best parts available into the engine build and I can only assume the rest as well! Are you going with a custom fabbed turbo kit or an off the shelf system from someone?
Very nice!

We are loosing some LB’s!

it’s a TH400 trans.
Here is my shameless plug lol, on FB follow RoadCone Racing. There is a lot more info on the car and build.

Epic car

cheers Tim.

The pic you’re talking about is actually my block next to another one.
Since the hood and deck was carbon, the drag wing must match!

The cross bolts are not in the valley, that's the block skirt. Bear block runs 2 cross bolts on each side of main caps vs oem having a single.

Badass! Can't wait to see what it does!

What are the specs on the motor? Sleeved, o ringed. What about rods/pistons, cams, is it still a 5.0? And what's it rated to?

It is sleeved Bear block, o ringed, CP custom pistons, Winburg Billet crank, Callie’s Ultra billet rods. The crank is 3.8 stroke, 12.5 compression and the cams are MHS TBX turbo cams with MHS valve springs. It good for over 2000whp.
