Ryan Falconer 60 degree v6.

 

looks like dual turbos, dual plane custom intake. FWD heads??

Very long runners for torque, injectors installed up high. Good for atomizing, but bad on throttle response.

Any exact specs on it?

 

something tells me you might need a cowl hood with that motor heheh...

 

lol doubt many 350's out there could keep up with that thing

 

I think we're actually looking at dual banks of injectors. It looks to have one high and one low on each runner. 12 injectors total.

 

damn that thing is a monster

 

Good eye, your correct.

 

Forget the cowl hood, that lil toy would be very very nice on say a dune buggy or sand car.

 

Man.. that plenum looks almost exactly like what I have in my head.... the intake's a little off due to it being far beyond my capabilities, though, but the runner length is about right. A little tighter on the bends using mandrel bent pipe for the runners... and only one set of injectors will keep me happy.

 

I must have missed the dyno proven part

 

I understand where you coming from. Wish I could prove it to ya. I snaked this post from 60degreev6.com.


However this is a product of Ryan Falconer
Check out Ryan falconers website if you even think about flinching about what this little 2.5 or 2.8 is in its crazy Twin turbo form.


Im not 100% sure thoose are GM heads.

I thought they could be the potter v6 heads?

 

Wonder how much that cost to build

 

i want to see that in a car, and see what it can do

 

....wow......Good find. Imagine this, you pull up to the local strip, make a 10 second pass (with a very unique sounding exaust note), a pro stock guy walks up and asks what you're running, "Oh it's just a 2.8L V6...". I want one....

 

That would go 9's easy. Also its destroked or sleeved down to 2.5 liters from what I was told.

 

If they can do that with a 6 i wanna see what they could do with a 8

 

I've seen 8's that would blow your mind Brobert, but they don't look like that. That motor by itslf is a work of art even on an engine stand (much like an F1 motor). I've seen 1200 motors up close and personal, they look pretty plain jane (except for the direct port setups). I imagine they destroked it to rev higher and lower the compression (the pistons are probably of a very unique design). That motor s probably running a VERY high amount of boost, the turbos are very large for the displacement (Doward, what do those look like to you ). Thing probably revs to 10k or more.

 

Definetely Garret turbos... looks like a set of T4's, possibly hybrid T3/T4s. Hard to tell with the compressor side facing backwards

 

Btw, that won't fit in an Fbody

 

haha sawzall and a bfh and anything will fit

 

Personally that kind of motor looks scary with all those custom parts. Lol if something breaks not like you can just order it from anywhere, most likely have to have it custom made again. Looks very high maintance too me, but still impressive looking.

 

I think its bitchin'. I still have my old 2.8 in the garage, maybe they sell the components. I wonder if anyone here has ever done the 350 > 2.8 swap?

 

I would definately say it was built for a boat- Lightweight and powerful.

He is specializing in V12's right now mainly for cigarette boats that put out aprox 1000hp+ and a whole lot-o-torque.

What sucks is I have e-mailed them three times and now reply. I'll have to find time to call them during business hours. I want to see what he has to offer (if any) for 60*V6's and if I can get ahold of one of his early FI intakes.

 

If you're in the business of making custom parts for high performance (and that's what he does, high performance) automotibles, and especially the parts he's making for aircraft then reliability is more likely then not at the forefront. (do you want your engine to destroy itself at 10,000 feet? I don't)

Also, it doesn't look particularlly high maitnence, while running it will definately call for the need to replace parts and inspect parts on a somewhat regular basis, the confusing parts of things such as our cluttered engine bays, numerous amounts of switches, and the cars being made to meet federal standards, not highend automotive/aircraft standards, that i'm thinking it would probably do very well, and depending on instalation, would probably be a very easy engine to work on.....however, keep in mind the the tolerances of an engine such as that would be so critical, that attempting to get something working proerly w/o propper knowledge, might give you an iron block and aluminum head custom made boat anchor.

 

Yeah I'm necroposting, but does anyone have the link to this thing or a picture, since it no longer works....would love to see that engine......

 

 

I'm not sure thats the same engine, they mentioned dual turbos, and while the one you just posted is deff a beast, I don't think an N/A 3.4 could possibly hit 750 hp...400 probably...but not 750..

 

ah geez...Honestly I stopped reading when I saw the age and Falconer.
That one defiantly is a Ryan Falconer engine...but good luck finding the original pics from this thread. Probably buried deep within the interweb.

 

And I just noticed thats a fiero that the one you linked is in

 

Ooo, me want to see more! Anyone have pics? Google doesn't help as far as I can tell.

 

That is...PURE ART.

 

man, i need those air cleaners.. lol
