| CF-71 Freedom Bird UPDATE |
|
The 440 cid engine was just finished up this week and we dynoed it for 2 days. During that time we tested the new KRE North Wind intake and we are VERY happy with the initial results. We are currently working on an engine article for the build so we don't want to release any power numbers at this time. I will say this, Ty should have his hands full when he lays into the gas!
This engine was based off off a 4" stroke 428 combo that features a set of KRE Aluminum D ports with 310 CFM CNC port work, KB Pistons, and Pro-Warrior rods and crank. The TIP custom ground solid roller was topped off with a custom PRO Systems carb. This pump gas combo ideled at 850 rpm and made peak power at 6400 rpm! Look for more details in the near future!
Here is a shot of the custom TIP logo covers on the engine.....

| KRE North Wind INTAKE |
|
.
It is finally here! The NEW KRE North Wind intake. We were able to utilize the intake on the 440 cid engine in Project CF-71 Freedom Bird. It was nice to see that we have a low rise intake manifold design that really works! Another plus was the CNC port match that was performed by KRE.... matched up VERY well with their 310 CNC port and the TIP-120230 intake gaskets. Quite a time saver!
I also really liked the fact that we did not have to grind the runners in order to get the intake bolts started like I typically have to do when using a victor style manifold. The picture below shows the intake bolts just started and there is plenty of clearance! Look for some more info and testing on this manifold very soon.
