We’ll be honest, we were really close to blogging about a cool 2.0L Pinto motor we found that was set up for road racing, then we decided to peek around RacingJunk.com a little more and our ooga-booga meter pegged when we saw this lump. Built by the well known nitrous engine builder Charlie Buck, this 747ci, dual carb’d, quad-nitrous’d engine has shoved a 2400-pound car to 6.30s in the quarter-mile. Oh hells yes.
Where to begin? Maybe with the billet block by CN, or the Sonny Leonard “Next Generation” Hemi-Chevy heads, or the Speedtech billet intake manifold perhaps. As far as low end power, this motor has it in spades. The car this motor was in went as quick as 4.07/184 mph in the eighth mile, the motor was backed with the ‘Glide for its life in Chris Rini’s Top Sportsman/Pro Mod machine.
Charlie Buck builds a mean motor, and this mountain of mean is proof! For a mere $48K you too could try to melt pistons with industrial amounts of nitrous.
