well not to bash anyone but the man who passed this information to me has a Masters in Mech Engineering. His brother in law is the guy who works for Rousch-
He also has a Masters-
I think I would trust at least two ME guys over a few "enthusiest" opinions- I dont wanna raise hell with ya RedSVT but I value their opinion much more than yours. as for this being bogus- well you did know that the Bondurant SVT's had modded oil pans in them didnt you?? they held about 1 quart more than stock-
also the Rousch Racing guys are blowing 8 of 10 Aston Martin V-12's on the dyno test. If you call them and ask them
#1 you wont get the guys in the Duratec lab.
#2 they probably cant and wont tell you the results of thier tests.
#3 if they did say much they could get fired. #4 They do a ton of "undercover developement" work for Ford so they cant say anything about what they work on.
I here these facts because of my job and the people who we know. The guys at rousch aint kidden when they do tests, if you knew what they did to motors you would piss your pants-
BTW the last Rousch rig that was at my shop had 7 motors in the back just rolling around- 4 cobra R motors that had blown in desert testing and 3 Nascar motors-
ive seen it with my own two eyes-
but ask them about the blown Cobra R motors and they wont tell you squat- because they get payed upwards of 60K not to.
you dont tell shop details to just anyone-
anyof you in buisness know that you have to cover all your bases.
I gladly share what I can guys- I could share more if you were around here- all you would have to do is come by our shop and we could talk cars for hours- dont kill the messenger- I have tried to see if he will get me the dyno results in paper or if he would like himself to be known - a fellow CEG'r has asked to speak to him as he works in the same Rousch Complex- well as of now- he hasnt sent the papers and doesnt want to say his name- I know it but im covering his bases for him- Id do the same for each and everyone of you - and id expect you to do the same for me.
