Most powerful small block
I am looking for the .18 size (or any small block) engine that has the most torque at 24,000 to 28,000 rpm. Are there any dyno test results of various small blocks engines on the net ? This is going in a helicopter so the rpm range is pretty important (can't easily change the gear ratio).
The heli now has a Toki .18 in it and is pretty weak. The engine also need to have a standard crank, no pilot shaft.
Thanks, Chuck

RE: Most powerful small block
Um...you really gotta ask the guys in the Helo forum.
There are too many factors that differentiate car & helo motors (stats, size, max rpms, cooling requirements, carb linkages.....) for anything we non-helo guys say to be of any use.
'Course, there ARE some folk here that run Helos too, but why not go to the forum where 100% of the users are farmiliar with what you need to know?

Look at Sirio and Epic .18's. Sirio's puts out 1.9HP and Epics puts out 1.8HP. Go to www.teamtrinity.com or www.epicmotorsports.com to find more info.

Not many people run this heli because of the weak engine it comes with. That's why I'm asking here. Most heli engines run at a max of 16,000 to 18,000 rpm. This heli has a 12:1 ratio and the engine needs to run at a min of 24,000.
