anyone able to offer up any info on this? anyone running it? what ECU,intake mani, header etc did they use to get that power figure? price? i typed in the search and apparently any autozone or kragen can order the thing which i thought was funny.

 

haha daaaamn, a 275 to the flywheel longblock thats 2.1 liter with 11.5 and uses pump gas with a warranty of 12months 15k miles... wow just the warranty alone is nuts. for them to back that up im sure this longblock has to be in the 6-7gs easily if not more. so easy to make power with a bigger displacement that you wont even have to rev as high.. 7900.. thats almost K series status.

 

Sounds VERY similar to the Gsport Beast motor. IIRC, retail on that was 12,000, then it dropped down to 9. Not sure if that was a temporary price drop though.

The engine might be serious, but that ad campaign sure isnt.

"In the engine world, the more revolutions the better!"

Here is a good thread on that motor. In it one of the guys who owned one of the test mules chimes in with 219 on a Mustang Dyno, with fairly pedestrian parts.

seems like more peopel would know about this. i called the 29 palms autozone and they said they could get it for me but couldnt give me a price. 29 palms is the absolute buttcrack of the united states so if they can get it here it definately exists. the part thats funny to me is how secretive they are in that ad. "and some other tricks" hahaha.

i know they are contracted with dart for the block and head. nothing is honda, but its all liscensed thru honda. im wondering who the valvetrain contractor is. the crank, rods, pistons and what not. that way, we could find a comparible set-up, find out what it makes as far as power, then see if the recon revolution is worth the sum of its parts and better yet, worth the price tag.
