NEW ENGINE Justin Pawlak's Falken Mustang



The supercharged engine is gone, and in its place is a 410 cubic inch Ford V8 built by Roush Yates Racing Engines. This new sprint car based engine is over 100 horsepower more than the 2010 engine, a whopping 200 lbs lighter, and spins reliably to 8300 rpm.

I was expecting the same as JRs motor

If I'm thinking correctly this is now the most powerful V8 on the field

I think it may be the or tied for the second biggest displacement. What is the size of Sam's V8 in the Challenger? Isn't it also a 410CI?

Yeah if your dumb enough to show up and cut them a check.

Falken is a big name running in a legit series, I'm sure they got cut a huge deal if they paid at all. At the end of the day everything needs a price tag.

Yeah, Joe Customer doesn't haggle anymore and it is kind of a shame. People shouldn't be afraid to do it, as you should get the best thing you can at the best price. Now, I do realize, having been in retail, there are some things set by the Manufacture, but still, HAGGLE.

Y'all realize the average customer for this is a *gasp* sprint car team that will have the funding (normally the driver or owner who has some other company supplying their disposable income for the race team) to buy the best legal engine they can, which is this.

Excited to see how this works out.
