Engine Masters Challenge

[rccktmn2]

Thought I'd post a link to the engine masters challenge, you'll want to watch Robinson Analytical which is going to be dynoed tomorrow afternoon, they will be the last ones on the dyno. Robinson has a 307 that puts out close to 500 hp ( I think 475 is the number) it's pretty interesting, here is a link to more info on the engine its self. http://www.realoldspower.com/phpBB2/vie ... hp?t=77908

And they say 307's are a waste of time...In my defense my 307 croaked after having the car for 1 week...and I found a 350 when searching for a 307 so i jumped on a 350...

I have heard about this build. But understand that as amazing as that engine was it took a LOT of work to get wat a good top end kit on a sbc could to anyday. Still not worth the money when a 350rocket engine looks just that same and can build power much easier

Nobody said you can't make any power with a 307 just that there is no bang for the buck in it. You can alwayse get more HP/TQ from the same or less money with a 350/403 usually including the core price and its a drop in fit. Always interesting to see the engine masters builds though.

Mondello built a 307 that I put out over 400 horses a long time ago... They said it was just to prove it was possible/expiriment just for the hell of it, but not really worth the effort it's much more cost effective to go with the 330-350 or bigger rockets.

wow..i was just giving love to the 307's...wasn't trying to make it a discussion on the 307 vs the other small block olds...or sbc

I figured I'd post a link if anyone wanted to keep track, I think it's a waste of time and money with the 307 if you want allot of performance, but I also think the 307 for what it is is a good motor.

Haha I heard the engines this morning from the dyno room today as I was walking to class. I actually got to go see part of it last year but this year I cant 😢
