SOHC Performance Is Finally HERE!!!

Well, I've been checkin the SuperSix Motorsports page on a regular basis wanting to see what is to come for our motor. I was looking at building a 150 prerunner/race truck because of the ease of motor building, but with the SuperSix stepping up to the plate, I think I'm back to stickin with the Ranger. I always have liked the underdog when it comes to performance. Anyways, on with the good stuff CLICK HERE for the newly released SuperSix Motorsports SOHC Performance Catalog.

I think we are within 2 weeks of them being available. They just balanced them and are sending them to get plated (painted).

SWEET, I knew the heads were out but now i see they have a cam and pistons to go with it.

I wonder if their head package has a better bang for the buck then a supercharger.

Hey Nickster....

Are you located close to SuperSix? Is that how you're getting the stuff so...'easily'?

Good job being guinea pig for the rest of us. Let us know

Well Zach is right, but I have prepayed(just like i did with EE) for most of this stuff and have been patiently waiting for about 4 months now... So if I seem kinda testy with any of my remarks, please disregard!!!

WWHHHOOOAAAHHHH Kick back cracker jack......That was meant to be a sarcastic fun comment. Wasn't try to call you out or call you an @$$hole.....Most guys on here usually post dyno sheets when they get em or give some numbers if they have them. Next time I'll preface my statement with a "this is written with a sarcastic tone." That's the reason I put the " " at the end. If you didn't have any numbers, just say so.

PS - If you ever see me on the road and want to race, go ahead and floor it, but I for one would never run against someone who I know will kick my @$$, what's the point?? Not to mention that I can't believe you would waste your time takin on races like that when they are worthless when it comes to bragging rights.

First i realize that it isn't finished, second, i realize you don't have a motor, third, when companies build performance parts they usually have numbers to go along with them......therefore it would be possible for you to have numbers on a motor built with the same parts you are having installed without you actually having the motor......

Now lets get this back on topic for the reason I posted in the first place and if anyone sees any actual numbers anytime soon, can you please post as i'm very interested in the parts for a future build up. Especially the durability issues and if the installation of the full line of parts will change to max RPM any. One of the things I will be looking for in the future is if they ever come out with a stroker kit for this motor.
