Mopar Muscle Covers AMSOIL Sponsored Competition

Mopar Muscle magazine is the leading magazine in the MOPAR enthusiast car scene. In 2007 AMSOIL became an official sponsor of the Mopar Muscle Challenge. Every engine builder is required to use AMSOIL products in the effort to build the most cost effective power plant possible.

Jim Foos, publisher of Mopar Muscle recently notified us that their coverage of the Mopar Muscle Challenge competition is the most exciting tech feature in their magazine, according to reader response. This photo shows just a little bit of the action. The Mopar Muscle Challenge isn’t just for motorheads. Follow along in the coming editions of the magazine.

This year will be the Fourth Annual Mopar Muscle Engine Challenge, featuring a 440-based spec engine. This year’s eight builders will display their respective engine combinations at the 2008 Mopar Nationals the weekend of August 8 in Columbus, OH.

Inside the Top Two Engines

If you love a good engine build competition, and especially if you are a Mopar fan, you will want to pick up a copy of the April issue of Mopar Muscle magazine, on your news stand now. On page 30, feature writer Dave Young goes deep inside the makings of the two top engines from the ’07 AMSOIL / MOPAR MUSCLE ENGINE CHALLENGE.

The rules are interesting. These engines must demonstrate that they are capable of the full range of what engines are called upon to do. With multiple qualifying passes and multiple judged pulls on the dyno, the engine must show that it can endure the abuses of highway cruising, and drag strip bruising.

This year’s two top engines were built by Indy Cylinder Head and Schurbon Engine and Machine. It was the closest battle yet in this annual competition, and every picture tells a story in this month’s Mopar Muscle magazine. See how they did it. It’s a pretty cool story with AMSOIL lubricants right in the middle of it.
