@pistonvsrotorextremo No thats a straight 4-cylinder engine, i guess its about 1.7-2 litres, supercharged and on nitro of course :) same engines thats used in Top Fuel Bikes world wide :)
any info on the engine. Seems like they let it warm up and then that old guy does somthing and the compression goes WAYY up???? engine deatails would be great.
this motor is very different to a Harley based top fuel bike. It is a 4cyl ofaround 150cc that puts out up to 1500hp approx. The V Twin Harley config motor puts out similar hp ,however it can be anywhere from 175ci (2867cc) up to 200ci (3277cc). This motor based on Kawasaki 1000cc but has billet crank and special billet cases with the highly modified cyl head about only part resembling original. The Harley based top fueler has little in common to a stock harley apart from cam system and rods are side by side on common journal not knife and fork like stock which means cyls are not inline rather they now side by side. Awesome bits of engineering either breed.
Steve McBride as Crew Chief???
No wonder it runs perfect...NICE job!!!

@ephenj It's started on Gas then switched to Nitromethane.

@MarcusMoller Thanks for the clarification. I meant Top Fuel Bike.
started on methanol then nitro nitro-methane wont blend with gas its not running pure nitro maybe 70%/30 nitro/alky mix
rapaiz muito top heim
F'in stright nasty!
Bad ass
@ephenj Top Fuel Harley + supercharger + nitrometane = 1500 hp +/-
