Title: Ford FR-9 NASCAR Engine
Post by: Wreckless Warren on May 10, 2012, 08:04:30 PM

I just watched a segment on the Science Channel where they followed the detailed assembly of a Ford FR-9 NASCAR Race Engine at Roush Yates.

What an engine!

You can see the attention paid to cooling and lubrication, not to mention the cylinder heads and valve train, it's something to see. ww

That was a cool video!  Check out the shot of the piston at about 13:47
