pipes of peace... haha

Rays new pipes
sound 
 fucking
 awesome
seven and a half litre race tuned engine with go-faster skulls

We went back to Zero Exhaust near Ashford in Kent 
to pick up Rays trike yesterday.
The pipes with CNC cut manifolds are guaranteed for 25 years 
(if they inspect them once a year - ha).

UPDATE 

Engine is a 383 big block +60 th, with stroker crank, full race cam, Edelbrock performer heads, Edelbrock performer inlet manifold, 650 cfm 4 barrel carb, + 200 hp noz and the new zoomie pipes. torqueflight 727 box, jag 2.85:1 diff, 
Its 12' 00" long and 6' 8" wide.


Interesting figures... 
max engine rpm 
(with supercharger + noz)                         8,500 rpm
gearbox output @ 1:0 - 1:0 =                    8,500 rpm
transfer box output @ 1:0 - 1:0  =             8,500 rpm  
diff output @ 2:85 - 1:0 =                           2,9824561 rpm at the wheel
33" dia tyre =                                               103.6725" per revolution
X 2,9824561 =                                             309,198.68" pm
=292.8018 mph ???????  Yeeeee Haaaaaaaaa

I think the calculations are right but don't forget to take friction and wind factors so probably take off 50 mph - RAY


so just take off 50... 
so it will probably only do 240 mph Ray?... 
hahaha
