I am kinda partial to the triple myself. :biggrin:

 

 

triples are nice..........but this motor beat every triple it raced at the planet sand drag including the builders triple which made 263hp while I was on the phone with him. The beast is a twin sabber at 1150cc its right up there with the biggest triple.

I think he is talking about the triple saber/caracal which ever it is called.

Yes I was talking about the Triple Caracal.I know someone that is having one built.I remember Dave Moore posted some pictures of the triple caracal stuff on PS but like everything else over there it must be hush hush too,because the thread just mysteriously vanished. :ermm:

thats a caracal.. its aprox 1297cc's for the twin and somewhere in the 1800 range for the tripple..

 

the average joe cant get them without getting in touch with calvin for approval first (pretty much builders can only put them together for possibly a customer)

 

k&t isnt the only builder that can build one.. one of the first to have it done (at least to the point it was at the ps races)..

 

as far as i know there are/is 5 of them being built.. or at least there are parts for that many ready..

 

 

the cost is pretty spendy too.. your looking into some big bucks to get the parts only for it.. put it this way its like 2500 or so for the trans alone.. then you still need the crank, top end, cases, carbs (650 each), pipes, ect...

 

you should expect in the 15k range at the least for the motor.. at least thats what i was told.

 

then youve got to consider the chassis, around 1k for the rear wheels isnt unheard of.. but then again they are only 26in 14paddle kevlar rippers (12x12 rims)

 

 

there are also rumors of one beign dyno'd in the 190's hp range, and a lots of nitrous can be sprayed as long as you get a progressive nitrous controller, other wise it will just blow the tires away off the line.. :ohmy:

 

 

 

 

 

p.s.

 

there are supposed to be different versions of that motor going into production as well.. i cant remember the third one but its supposed to go from semitar, _______, and the caracal..

 

then going to tripples..
