This is the engine spec from the "old" Bike ..... I gather this New Bike has a similar engine.

He obviously has the Combo sorted as he consistently runs 5.8 sec passes ....

but no this engine is not built for Land Speed Racing ... but I am sure there is plenty to learn from someone like McBride

Engine:
1511cc Puma/Kawasaki
1000 Horsepower, estimated
70mm stroke, 83mm bore
59:1 compression
BME Rods (Bill Miller Engineering)
Vance & Hines Cylinder Head
Puma crankshaft and case assembly
Dailey Engineerigng 3 stage dry sump oil system
Steve McBride engineered drive system
Belt Drives Ltd. Belt Drives
1 Gallon oil capacity

Supercharger:
Auto rotor
2.4 compression ratio
