i have heard good and not so good on aluminum rods the good being that they are lighter and lets the motor rev. and little more..the not so good is they dont last as long the life span is not as long and need to be changed more often..now dont take that as word cause i really dont know i have never made any hp like this or used alum. rods before..also this will help answer alot of ?? for my build on the 750hp..now he may use alum. i just cant say and love the ups and downs on the rods..mike
People sometimes treat their stuff poorly and wonder why it fails. I warm my oil to 120* minimum before making a pass and 100* before reving more than 1500. But some don't and the rod doesn't have a chance to grow to it's clearenced size. Steel lasts longer but is harder on everything else. And steel big end gets out of round too. Aluminum should be replaced every 200-250 passes in a natually aspirated engine, but some people, and mopar people say that's not true. I just do it out of habit, but you need to decide for you. I like them better than steel for a race only application. Also, I wonder if that 572-13 motor had 2 carbs?

i wouldnt use a 572-23 head,, its not big enough or moves enough air to safley make 1000 hp,,, and run down the track like it has 1000hp... the track is the real tell tale
use a b1 mc,,, pso,, or predator,,, a head that flows 440 or so...at least

I totally agree with the last 2 comments. Sit down with the engine builder, parts expert or whatever. People on this and other internet sites throw numbers around like gospel and dyno #'s don't mean jack if the car doesn't do what you want it to do. Pick an et goal and talk with one of these guys that does it for a living. Bob George, Koffel, Best Machine, MMotors, and the last two that replied will help you reach that goal. Sorry if I didn't mention someone else, but all of these guys come to mind as people with good reps.

A guy in my area has a tube chassis GTO with a motor from Kaufmann's that dyno'd 1000HP. It runs 9.50's at the track. Seems like everyone at my track has a 1000HP motor anymore, but they run the same or slower than my 3200# muffled car with 650HP. Any pics of the engine combo's posted so far?

The b1-TS head should be in that equation right around the Predator.

This makes sense. Too late for me now , but my next deal will have some type of forced induction on it. This seems to be the easiest and most reliable way to make monster numbers and not kill parts. I haven't done any numbers seriously , and it has the slightly more expensive feel to it , but I also think it will pay off long term with less maintenance and parts required to keep it strong.

car1968 Plymouth Barracuda, mild steel, square tube chassis 7.50 cert weight2875 race ready full of fuel engine spec525" B1/MC(oval ported by Mike Duke), 15.5-1, Callies Crank, GRP rods, CP pistons, 282/296 55MM Bullet Cam, T&D rockers, Unported single 4 intake, Gary Williams Dominator trans1.80 Powerglide with tight ATI 8" stop converter gear4.30 tire15x33 M/T Stiff sidewall
Fills in the blanks I suppose. This is the newest incarnation of this motor since we freshened it up. Also has a bit more weight in it to help bias a bit. Anyway my internet race car has been 8.0's at 168 and change going through the traps at 7450, in very good air. Admittedly I run the car on the stop most of the time. I typically will go 154-6 at 10.90, been 159 and change on the stop. Car makes peak HP at 7700 peak torque at 6400. Of course maybe the dyno was happy that day but it was well over 1000hp. You all can plug in the numbers to whatever you like and do the math.
We have never really chased ET with the car. I am a stop racer. I am more concerned with how it runs onthe stop than all out. I am completely confident that it can go a bit quicker than we have been. I am under geared and the converter is WAY tight. Shift recovery is ridiculously slow. At any rate that is how I got there.

This is the only way I would look to make big HP using what he has already!

I know the two TS engines I have are both based on the Hemi Bolt pattern but I have read of some being used on modified RB blocks. But you are right the Hemi pattern is standard.

with 572-13 head you make a solid 950hp,, which would still be fast in a 2350lb car...
i know guys around here that made 1000 or a lil more then put it in their 3300lb car and run 8.80's,,, look at westcott's stick car making a lil under 1000 running 8.20's in a 3200lb car,,, those guys with over 1000 prob really had a lil over 900
