I just wanted to follow up on my Ritter build I started a while back.

The engine made north of 900hp and I had no water issues or any othe weirdness on the dyno Friday.

I know Brett Miller has made a few of them make big power without issues, now with that being said you have to pay attention when building a Ritter block. I did everything I could to make sure things where right. I had a ton of help along the way so I want to say thank you to a few special people.

Brett Miller
Shiloh Davies
Joey Grose
Jerry Schierholt
Brad Rounds

Thanks a million!

Sounds like it should be a fun ride for sure. Hope to hear some track results soon smile

How did you enjoy your experience with Joey Grose? I have talked to him a few times and know a couple guys who have used his services in the past.

I love working with Joey. Super, super sharp and very easy to talk to. He has been a big help with all my junk.

Yes it is, his shop is in Lodi Ca. There is also another part time pro stock guy in the area Ben Watson who has a wealth of knowledge and some killer equipment. He has just been so busy with his company that pays the bills he has not gotten back to PS but he still does alot of work for various teams especially on the clutch dyno.

Good to know Al. I have been lucky as far as getting help with my junk.

Joey has been very helpful and doesn't hold anything back, tells it like it is, I like that.

THAT is one great looking engine with the numbers to match . IT has been a dream of mine to build a ritter block setup for the last 5 years
I'm crazy about saving weight on the front end plus the fact the Ritter block can take a hell of a lot more than an oem block . what you have is just what I would want maybe a bit less , i'd be happy with 700- 750 hp i my Dart I would give any car out there a good run
Good lluck and thanks for posting this , gives me something to aim for

My “worlds slo-est” W8 mill puts down numbers in that neighborhood. Very easy on parts and “interesting” in my 70 Duster for sure. 9.21 best so far and we’re still whittling things down... I can’t imagine having 200 more hp!! Roberts Duster is gonna fly!!
