MRL Performance 505 Street Killer

Hows this, Bob Weight on this engine 1910g!!!!!!!!!!!! No fooling, thats what it is.

It's been 5-6 years since I did the last one and it was a Source kit. The bobweight IIRC wasn't anything to worry about but it wasn't that light. It had the heavy H beams and the precursor of the ICON forgings, RPMs, my own port clean up, matched 6bbl intake, and a custom Engle flat tappet with similar lift but more duration @ .050 and had a little more static compression (11.1:1). IIRC it peaked at 602tq with 570-something hp. I liked not having to mess with the oil pickup boss. In a heavy E body rag top with a 4sp it's a monster. It would be damn near useless in an A body...lol.
 
This may be a crazy request, but what would be the damage for shipping to 99712? Just crunching the numbers and that info would be greatly helpful.

Thanks
 
I forgot to ask, does the price include the block or did the customer supply that?

I supplied the entire build. Block and all.

Thanks

Alaska???? Ill call Monday, Might want to be sitting down for that shipping quote.
 
Thanks...I am totally aware of the disadvantages of living up here, but the benefits outweigh them easily. :toothy7:
 
My next combo will be a 4.15 crank in my 400 block with the 6.76 Eagles I already have. Heads will be whatever aluminum I can find when the time comes. I want the powerband just like this motor if its possible with a hydraulic roller and some beehive springs. My Fast EZ efi is only rated for 600hp and Indy just came out with a Modman for the B engine so if it comes to that I can run 2 throttle bodies.
 
I had to give a bump to this thread incase someone happened to miss it.

This ranks close to the top of any Mopar builds I've seen........

650/650 all at under 6000 rpm's
BSFC numbers that are probably clean enough to pass some emission tests. :D
Double digit vacuum at idle.

Man, what's not to like.
 
Thanks man. I take a lot of pride in what I do and this is a good one. Wait till you see whats coming next!
 
Great job Mike, I know we talked :thumleft: and thank you for your time and
experiences/wisdom shared .

To see this thread I will be calling back as soon as I can on the /6 build
we talked about :glasses7:
You have a whampem hp package there Mike =D>
And ready to go \\:D/ to our door.
Thank you for bringing this to the plate here :thumbrig:
 
Mike I wanna see you do something with a slant.
 
Been there, do that. Up-sized the valves, did some minor port work, solid cam, 9 to 1 compression.

Oohh, oohh, :blob: pick me for the BSFC dare, pick me! :blob:
 
Got some numbers on the slant?
 
CME do the same sort of power for $11,000 here's a link to one from another site.

What would be the advantages of your engine over their engine?

As I am a direct competitor in this engine business with Mike and CME, let me express my opinion as to some of the advantages.

First the quality of execution of the build. I have seen Mike's engines on teardown. If you don't think Mike will give you better quality, you are mistaken.

Then I don't much give a hoot about fuel economy. It's nice to have but I look at the horsepower per cubic inch and that is where I get my chuckles.

Look at the power Mike gets from the FIVE-OH-FIVE compared to the 522 on that site you listed.

4300 rpm.......522/635.8 TQ..........505/650.3 TQ...advantage Mike 1.218 tq/ci to 1.288 tq/ci

5300 rpm.......522/595.1 HP...........505/650.3 HP...advantage Mike 1.156 hp/ci to 1.288 hp/ci

5600 rpm.......522/603.5 HP...........505/644.0 HP...well you get the idea

Mike makes GREATER peak torque and horsepower, at the same or lower rpm, with his engine using a SHORTER STROKE.

THEN this was all done with a distinct DIS-advantage for Mike, in that his water temperature was over 80 degrees hotter than CME was using. I've never seen anyone use engine water temperatures starting at 110 degrees and then have them getting LOWER during the run as CME's did during that test. Someone was really attempting to boost the horsepower by cooling the engine.

IQ hit all the points I was looking at also.......

I'm not here to bash CME, but I will add that Mike's custom cam grind also delivers 4" more vacuum at idle.......that's huge for a big street hitter. Plus it uses a custom, in house designed lifter.

Compare the prices versus the available crates, I think it's a great value.
