Final results are
in for the Jeg's Engine Master's Challenge: BTR Finishes #10 Overall |
The
Jeg's / Popular Hot Rodding Engine Master's Challenge is over. The
BTR / Earl B. Emery, Registered Representative for Multi Financial
Securities Corporation 410 Cubic Inch Olds Entry finished #10
overall in a field of the top 50 Engine Builders in North America.
We here at BTR are very happy with this successful outing.
Considering the cylinder head handicap that this Olds entry was
faced with against far superior Ford and Chevy heads, we fared quite
well.
The other Olds entries were essentially at the bottom of the pack.
BTR's superior skills, knowledge and experience certainly shined in
this prestigious competition by running side by side with Big Dogs
using a less than optimal engine package.
Next year, BTR will likely
reconsider the approach and utilize a more advantageous package to
put them over the top!!!
So.. next time you are considering a new engine program, improving
your current combination or a basic re-build, why not choose the
services who has shown to be the best!! BTR continuously PROVES to
be the best!! Why listen to big talkers that show no results at the
track or the dyno.... BTR can give you SOLID, RELIABLE, POWERFUL
results that you can be assured of. Click on the image above
or HERE to see a video of the BTR entry on the EMC Dyno. Be sure to
CONTACT BTR Performance for your next project!

Release of the BTR Nitrous Solenoid
Nitrous System Flow Testing with BTR Performance Solenoid! A Nitrous
Express Direct Port Nitrous Injection System with an Iceman Pureflow
.157" orifice solenoid and with dual NOS "R" solenoids
were
tested back to back with a BTR Performance Extreme Flow solenoid.

up with 41 nitrous jets. Using equivalent bottle temperature, weight
and pressure and by only changing the NX Iceman solenoid to the BTR
solenoid, the system flowed 4% more pounds per hour of nitrous! |
