Scott Hilzinger from Haltech<\/a> explains the tech inside Sean Muscat’s Ford Cortina TC. Under the hood sits a twin-turbo 390 ci Windsor-based V8 built by BK Race Engines<\/a> in Bankstown, NSW, Australia mated to a built Turbo 400 automatic transmission. The motor features a Dart block, Bryant Racing crank, GPK rods, Cylinder Head Innovations (CHI) heads, titanium valves, and Nexus R5<\/a>. It produces 2400 horsepower thanks to two Garrett GTX47 turbochargers making 39 psi of boost. The motor runs on methanol fuel fed through 16 injectors from a Waterman mechanical pump. Sean’s personal best in the Cortina is a 4.43 sec at 167 mph in the eight-mile.<\/p>\n
