hey all just a few questions on the 92 vmax4 #1 what is the stock h.p and #2 what is the increase in h.p with the crank 180 degreed and how much work is involved to have the engine set up for 180 ?

HP ON THE 92 VMAX 4 WAS 132-135. 180 FIRING IS FOR FULL RACE MOTORS THAT USUALLY RUN AT A VERY HIGH RPM. THE MOTOR IS BASICLLY TURNED INTO A BIG '' TWIN '' WHICH ADDS ALOT OF LOW END TORQUE, THAN THE ING. FIRES 2 & 2. 3:16 (yammie tony)

No horsepower increase. 180 firing was a solution to change the point at which harmonic vibrations occur. As stated, it was for high rpm motors. This fear of 750 crankshafts failing is very much overplayed. Ask Quadzillaracer how much power you can make with a crank oriented at 90 degrees.
