So I think I want a blower on my Rocket


Speedy...I just might take you up on that. I would love to have this thing up and running by RAA next year so it looks like a winter project

Care to share?

The more I ponder this the more I'm thinking that even as cool as a Supercharged Rocket might be, maybe a Turbo Carpenter Rocket might be the ticket. To refine what I'm looking for a little more I want low RPM torque, and I don't want it to go away until I either hit the limiter or run out of balls. In short I want it all. If I could license an alcohol funny car powered Rocket for street use I would be looking into how to cram the motor on my Rocket. I want the absolute meanest, most in-your-face bike on the planet. Ideally that will run on pump gas and never break down
 
HEY we can give you 270 hp and 195 TRQ and thats a handfull so do you think you can handle more ???
 
If a carpenter Rocket is not enough then you must be a lot crazy.
If you really are that crazy tune the engine, bung a S/C on it too (TTS kits can usually be picked up cheap)
My first effort gave 350hp & 300ftlb lots more is available but to quote Pars Larson "beware the demon gods of power"
destruction is just a lean moment away.
I think the carpenter 270 should be more than enough for most crazy people, it must be seriously fast.
or talk to Scott about warp power.
 
YEP the 270 mod will run 8 second 1/4 miles @157 mph and we have a customer that has 32,000 miles and no problems not even a valve adustment needed just oil changes
 
For those in the know, those are extremely impressive results... the steroided monkey makes cuckoo power everywhere across the powerband.
 
In the end I will probably make my decision on the fact that I prefer to ride far more than turn wrenches...which probably means the bike will be going to NJ at some point
 
SO there is the dyno sheet for the 270 mod and Ive te
