EMC report

Well done Blair and lets not forget Barry and Joe.

No doubt!

[turbohunter]

We’d never forget. Am just amazed at you guys.

Can I ask a favor?.....Somebody that is there, can you write up a quick summary of engine, peak hp, peak tq, and score???

The coverage of this thing has been lousy. I believe in years past they had a live stream even?

[Royce]

It's all over.. The scrubs had nothing for Blair or Geoff Mummert

[turbohunter]

Ok now it’s a big darn deal.
Congrats Blair.

You mean a bunch of SBC's couldn't beat a little ole Ford 289? 

Good job to everybody, Blair, Barry, and Joe.

Yes, congrats to Blair! It's nice to see the extinct FE in another winners circle. At some point, given Drag Week, EMC, Ray's win at Indy (again)....the media have to be scratching their collective heads 

And Mummerts 289 is pretty darned impressive. For the cubes, the 289 has to be the toughest little engine ever produced.

So, does anyone know the detailed specs on the 289? It's amazing how well it did and begs the question: How??

Congrats Blair! I saw a blip of Blair's engine on Hotrod's video. Nice looking piece with a Trickflow intake. What was the reason for all the various pipe fittings on the thermostat housing?

Edit: Hopefully Hotrod will do a tear down article.

BP, you're fabulous---but then we already knew that!

Congrats! I'm curious if those heads came from my pile of parts? I would like to say "Yep those are my old heads, thought I'd let Blair borrow them for awhile"  All joking of course!

Agreed on the poor coverage, kind of figured they would video it and pump out another "show" for the Motortrend channel. Actually was kind of hoping they would..

[Royce]

Blair will be torn down at 9 am tomorrow. Hopefully Hot rod will cover it.  All his secrets will be revealed!!
 JE Pistons website should have some event coverage and interviews

Congrats to BP, and well done to all the FE builders.

There are five engines left to run.  Kaase is first out in the morning, and will definitely be a serious threat.  He told me today that he thinks it will be a tall order to get past the 390.  No doubt he is a sharp cookie.  I guess we will have to see.  Thanks to all of my friends and customers who frequent here who have been interested and supportive.  Both the block and the head castings came from forum members. Fingers crossed.......

The heads on my engine are extensively ported.  We made programs, so I will be able repeat these ports in pretty much any Low Riser type head.

Interesting, How will those head work on the street in a heavy car?

I think C4AE-G's just went up in value!
