Ajay Chapman is building his friend Karl Chamberlin a street-legal dragster capable of low-6’s. The project started four years ago with a wrecked 2002 Holden Monaro and has come a long in that time. <\/p>\n

The repaired Monaro body sits on a chromoly tube chassis with a funny car roll cage. The car rides on QA1 two-way adjustable coilovers, Vanishing Point Race Car’s X-link kit, Weld Alumaster 17×4-inch wheels in front, and Weld Delta Pro Mode 16×16 wheels in back.<\/p>\n

A vehicle capable of low-6’s is going to need a lot of power. Karl turned to Steve Morris Engines<\/a> (SME) for a twin-turbo 672 ci big-block Chevy V8 capable of running 93 octane fuel for the street or C16 race fuel for the track.<\/p>\n

The engine features Brodix 5.00-inch bore aluminum block, Winberg billet crank, MGP rods, Diamond pistons, SME custom camshaft, Moroso dry sump and 6-stage pump, and Holley Dominator ECU. The V8 is topped with Brodix aluminum heads, Trend 1\/2-inch and 9\/16-inch pushrods, Jesel rockers and belt drive system, and Hogan sheetmetal intake manifold, and Wilson 123mm throttle body.<\/p>\n

The turbo system uses two Bullseye Power Pro Mod 98 mm turbochargers with two Turbosmart 60 mm wastegates and blow-off valves. The fuel system uses 16 Billet Atomiser 235 lb\/h injectors and a Waterman mechanical fuel pump. The engine made 2992 horsepower and 2377 lb-ft of torque on 93 octane fuel. It made 4002 horsepower and 2977 lb-ft of torque on C16 race fuel.<\/p>\n
