The NORAD Celica will use the same Toyota 3RZ 2.7-liter engine used in Rado's current race car but Norwood is making several changes to squeeze more useable power out of the unit. "I have re-worked the cylinder heads to optimize the flow capabilities," explained Norwood. "The intake and exhaust ports have been raised and we have spent a lot of time on the flow bench getting the heads where we want them. We are currently working on cam profiles and so far we have managed to make improvements that should yield a lot of useable power. "We have also re-worked the crankshaft and block to take us as close to the three-liter limit as we can go, I'm an old timer and a believer in the old saying "There ain't no substitute for cubic inches". "Christian's current engine combination makes well over 900 horsepower to the wheels. I am on target to make at least 250 more with a much wider power-band." Much R&D time has also been dedicated to the chassis design of the new Celica. The design features the same 'Four-link' style front suspension as the current car but a completely different approach has been pioneered by Norwood's team. The front of the chassis is much narrower and the steering centers are placed on the centerline of the tires. [Updated on: Fri, 05 March 2004 12:41] [Report message to a moderator]
