    How much power can this block make?

    • @ElmerRacing
      @ElmerRacing  5 лет назад

      The block by itself won't make any more power than a cast 4b11t block of course. But it's much stronger and will support a lot higher power levels than the stock block. Depending on the rpm you want to run, anything from 900-1200hp should be "easily" achievable with the 4b11t platform. With the block definitely being strong enough for even more power than that.

    • @cartermackenzie1135
      @cartermackenzie1135 5 лет назад +1

      ElmerRacing so if I use this block with stock 4b11t internals would the engine basically last forever

    • @ElmerRacing
      @ElmerRacing  5 лет назад +1

      The block would at least! :D Although for super long term durability in highly corrosive usage situations, like road salt year round, the block might need to be anodized.

    hey Elmer! Few questions..
    Is this billet Aluminum / could it be? And are there stronger billet Aluminum alloys available for the same use?
    Is it possible to design a billet block like this with liquid cooling passages?
    What is the lightest possible you could make a liquid cooled (if possible) Cummins 6bt block? (In terms of hp)
    How much could you bullet proof an engine like this / what kind of max abuse could you design a billet engine to take?

    • @ElmerRacing
      @ElmerRacing  5 лет назад +1

      Our current Thor and Rex engines are both full billet aluminum. We use a alloy close to 7075, which is twice as strong as the alloy typically used by others. Our Thor and Rex engines are both fully cooled. We don't have the dimensions for the cummins engine. But we rate our 106kg (long block mass) Thor engine at 1500hp for circuit racing. And should be good for 3000hp drag racing.

    305 bar cylinder pressure?!. I find that very hard to believe.

    • @ElmerRacing
      @ElmerRacing  7 лет назад +2

      Block and crank are "rated" to that pressure. As much a a race engine part can be rated at all. Maybe "designed" would be more accurate.

    • @mareksumguy1887
      @mareksumguy1887 7 лет назад +1

      How did you guys come up with that figure??. Was it through direct pressure testing or FEM/FEA ?

    • @ElmerRacing
      @ElmerRacing  7 лет назад +4

      This is by design with FEM. Taking dynamic loading into account (as of course always has to be done).
      The test engine is running commercial race pistons, they will certainly not hold for 305bar.
      We will get around to making our own pistons eventually though. Not at the top of the to-do list at the moment.

    • @britneyshaw8191
      @britneyshaw8191 8 лет назад

      also if I was to take my evo 10 engine (4b11) engine out for this would all my components be a direct swap fore this block considering I've put 12 grand into it all ready like my knife edge crank,dry sump oil system,ported and polished head with twin scroll turbo set up? I'm seriously interested!?!?

    • @ElmerRacing
      @ElmerRacing  8 лет назад +6

      This is a full race block. But it is fully street usable. All stock evoX 4B11T components should bolt directly on.
      Long term corrosion resistance hasn't been tested though and is really the only potential issue. We give no guarantee for corrosion resistance.
      Our first test block has been used for two years in racing use (in the dry, wet, and even some snow), and no corrosion issues on that. But it hasn't seen any significant salt.
      If you live in a "danger area" we could hard anodize the block for very good corrosion resistance. Or you could just monitor the situation, and if light corrosion is detected, spray some protection on the block.

    What is the advantage of machining from billet, rather than a casting ?

    • @ElmerRacing
      @ElmerRacing  8 лет назад +4

      We can use a stronger aluminum alloy, that isn't suitable for casting.
      And price / design freedom. It would be very expensive to make casting molds for the low quantities of our stronger designs. And it's also relatively easy to do customization for each block we make.

      It's not really a open deck. The design we have developed and tested provides the best compromise between cooling capacity, temperature distribution, and cost.
      Block rigidity and torsion stiffness is very high, much better than other available solutions for the 4b11t. No head gasket problems so far!

    • @ElmerRacing
      @ElmerRacing  8 лет назад +2

      Depending on the design, we might be able to do them at a similar price to the 4B11T.
