Even in the 7s, still had plenty of smoke to clean up. Should be interesting. Only reason I pack earplugs to NHRDA events
There have been some updates to this unit over the winter. I don't know all of the details, but what i do know is that the engine got a full rework with RPS Diesel in Morinville. Well known shop for making good stuff. Looks like they went to a whole new head set up that should eliminate the rocker problems they had before and flow a BUNCH more air.
This can be seen with the MASSIVE new valve set up. The bottom end stayed the same as far as i can tell, and i think the fuelling up front is the same. Look to be a higher ratio on the blower, so it might be sitting closer to the 3:1 rather the 2.73:1 it was at end of season. Pretty excited to see it move again.
needed more air, that's for sure. From what i heard, the heads originally were poorly designed, or maybe a better way to say, had room for improvement. That led to other things i guess.
