| At the heart of every Porsche is a powerful engine with
a genuine racing pedigree. Each one combines benchmark
performance with exhilarating acoustics to form the essence
and character of the car.In the Carrera GT, we've used
a new evolution of a racing V10 originally developed for
Le Mans. In addition to the familiar Porsche characteristics
of power, immediacy and evocative sound, this lightweight
unit combines remarkably smooth running with exceptional
emissions control.The twin banks of cylinders are arranged
in a 68-degree 'V' topped with four-valve heads equipped
with sodium-cooled exhaust valves. A 98 mm bore is combined
with a 76 mm stroke to produce a total displacement of
5.7 liters. With a maximum power rating of 605 hp (SAE)
at 8,000 rpm, the engine has an exceptional specific output
of 105.5 hp (SAE) per liter. Maximum torque is 435 lb-ft
at 5,750 rpm en route to a maximum engine speed of 8,400
rpm. |

| friend of mine sent me an engine building book to read
and I can't believe it. I can't believe people actually
buy this stuff, but what really gets me is the people
who write this stuff. They've probably never built a competitive
racing engine in their entire life or they're some big
name engine builder telling you only a few of his secrets.
I can't believe how much fluff is in these books. They
don't tell you anything, except maybe a bunch of outdated
info.So, tell you what I'm doing right now, I'm putting
together every engine building tip I have. It's not going
to be a bunch of fluff, it's going to be straight to the
point. Just the info you really want. I've been selling
the book Secrets of a 740hp Winston Cup Engine for about
4-months now and the sales have been more than I expected. |
