So I just wanted to do a little write up on my new PowerHouse Performance engine because they are new and the word needs to get put out there.
First let me start by saying before this engine setup I was running a Team Scream ss865 with ATP flame total loss, XS modded mikuni 46s and XS modded b-pipe.
The engine/setup I'm running now is Zack's PowerHouse Performance 4mil 898cc engine on 50/50 race/pump gas to practice on( later im dropping in the race domes with full race gas, 48 novi's, Powerfactor pipe, MSD total loss and 144 skat setback mag pump.
After talking with a few people about Zack's (owner/builder) new engine i decided to give him a call and see what he was about. First off he knows his stuff, there wasnt a single question I had that he didnt have a answer for. On top of that one time he called me on a sunday while he was on vacation to talk with me about the engine, that right there had me wanting to do business with him. He always answered my calls and text and would even call me at times to see how things were going with the build.
On to the engine, he had it done before the date it was supposed to be done...AWESOMENESS!!! When I recieved it, it was crated in a wooden crate so nothing could get damaged...AWESOMENESS!!!
He walked me threw setting up the total loss, getting my carbs setup, ect...he was a great help and I know i had to bug him cause I was calling and texting him non-stop.
On to performance, this engine exceeded my expectations. completely blew me away the first time I hit the throttle, it hits hard at the bottom, mid and top end rips like a rapped ape, I was shocked! I have rode a handful of different stroker/big bore engines and this one is different than all the rest. It hits harder than a 10mil 885cc on full race gas that I have rode in the past.
Im still getting use to the powerband of this setup because i was use to a ss865 with a b-pipe so I have to change my ride style to get the full potential out of this setup, but I will get it down in a few days. Also note it's still not tuned 100%. I'm posting some pics and a quick vid of my first real ride on the new setup. Just keep in mind i'm still getting use to it aaaaaaand I have not rode in 2 months
