EXCLUSIVE First Look-WHIPPLE 4.5L... Coming soon!!

[twisted_GT500]

Here's an 8.3L Whipple on a GT500 motor. Whipple is way ahead of the game. Always has been and always will be.

ohh, I know whipple has toys we couldn't even imagine! And seeing as how I am a big supporter of 'too much is never enough,' I'm down for the sickness! Just wish I had enough $ to play at this level!!!

I know this is an old thread but I just bumped into it....one question. Then why did Whipple abandon the 3 valve? Rumor mill for a long time was a 2.9L compressor with adaptor plate was going to be released and then nothing. All we got is a 2.3L that gets over spun and turns into a furnace if you spin it any harder than the pulley supplied by Whipple.

More options from Whipple would be nice or are 3 valve owners just red headed step children? (guess that makes two but its more rhetorical)

 

[BMR Tech]

Wow. That's big.

 

[twisted_GT500]

Well, since this was revised......

Jared, any more news?

How is that 4.5 going to be like on 2013 gt500 ?
800 whp on pump gas I guess

 

[twisted_GT500]

Didn't Kenne Bell already get 801rwhp on a current GT500 with supporting mods, exhaust, n pump gas? If so....might be higher. Either way the block will blow before this thing even get warmed up I'm thinking

I do not think so the 2013 gt500 block is much stronger (both rods and pistons) than the current gt500

Give it some time, the 03-04 Cobra guys finally got the 2.9 a couple years after it's availability for the GT500's was announced

I'm beginning to give up on my 3v. It seems like no one is wanting to make anything for us anymore. If whipple would just make a damn bigger blower for the 3v many of us would buy it. I know I'll be first in line. This small 2.3 is getting on my nerves. Give me a blower that my cams deserve!! Should of went turbo.

I refer you to an article that originally appeared in 5.0 magazine where they made 810rwhp on a stock '07 GT500 with a Kenne Bell stage 3 kit.

The 2013 block is the same as the '11-12, but with increased cooling and a larger bore. I haven't finished reading the current magazines in-depth article on the new 5.8L, but my understanding was that the pistons were the same quality. The rods are a stronger material, but they're still sinter forged, so they're not that much stronger...

Cant say I know exactly how you feel, but I have similar feelings. After the 5.0 came out, that's what everyone jumped on. Seems like they stopping making GT500 parts too. And with the new 5.8, and then new body coming in '14 it'll get worse for both of us.

 

[JGrein05]

WOW that 8.3 is massive!

I have emails from Whipple that are probably close to two years old now telling me the same thing...look how that has turned out!
