Story: Ring Decisions in a High Performance Boosted Environment


"Our final ring package consisted of Total Seal’s C33 stainless steel top ring in a .017-inch Dykes configuration ... the second ring was a ductile iron Napier-style .043-inch with a .140-inch radial thickness. Finally we went with a fairly standard 22 pound, 3/16-inch conventional oil ring."

Our new top end package from Mast, Comp, Ferrea T&D and others [Story]


"With the help of an all-star lineup like Pettis Performance, Mast Motorsports, Comp, LME, T&D and Ferrea, this build has started out with a real bang. As we get closer to completing this build, all of the components these companies helped us choose will dictate the components list going forward. From the rear gear ratio to the type of block, our decisions will continue to hinge around our ultimate induction package as we continue our quest for radial 275 competition."

Provolute testing for Steve Morris

Some time ago we ran some Provulute testing for Steve Morris. Fromm Dragzine:
'West Coast 275 racer DJ Reid has tested the ProVolute F-2 modifications in back-to-back passes on his ProCharged Camaro. The passes were made on the same day, within one hour of each other, and nothing was changed other than installing the ProVolute system. 
“We ran pass one, removed the stock volute and then installed the Morris volute. We then ran pass two. We saw a 2-3 psi boost increase and a 10-15 degree temperature decrease across the board. Performance wise, we dropped from 5.17 to 5.03 and gained 2 mph,” says Reid.'
Super cool!
