    Is a backhalf Ranger cool here?

    Well, it's SBF powered, so maybe? I'll give the rundown and let you'se decide.

    Small bore 362" 8.2 deck stroker
    12.3ish compression
    Super Vic OOTB
    Pro Systems carbie for E85 (Holley HP950 main body)
    TEA TFS TW-R heads - 206cc
    T&D shafts
    Custom solid roller from Camshaft Innovations .757"/.727", 253*/268*

    TKO600 OOTB
    Advanced Clutches sintered iron slipper

    This junk would be done if I hadn't been laid off in Dec, but waaah, waaah, no one cares. Need finish machine work on the engine, finish the 4 link, cage, paint & wiring & it's ready to go.

    So, there you go, trying to get this junk to <10.5 ETs, all motor, we'll see what happens.

    Welcome. What does that junk weigh? 10.50's should be quite easy for your mods unless it weighs 2 ton.

    This is a 100% brand new build, chassis, engine, everything, so I'm shooting for 3000#. It's a gutted, no frills, rice killer.

    Not too much to look at pics wise, unless you like to see new parts in boxes.

    welcome, i dont see any problems with your combo going 10.50s!! Thats a pretty big dome for a stroker motor, you may want to recalculate the C/R..IMO Looks like awesome stuff though..

    Well, when designing this engine, I knew I was going to use a custom piston and I could have made the compression with the dome or cutting the heads (or both). Piston price is the same either way, but it would have been additional machining to cut the heads, so I opted for the "easier" route at this time. The R head is a default 61cc chamber from TEA, for whatever reason.

    NO, i meant just by me looking at that piston pic, it looks to around a .250 dome, and with a 61 cc chamber head, a .038 head gasket,and 3.6" stroke it seems to me that your compression would be in the 14:1s.. but thats just a hip shooting guess..

    Sorry bud, I misunderstood. Pic is kind of misleading, domes are only about +4cc.
