We managed to snag some more video of the Hurricane crate engine getting torture tested on the engine test rig. They absolutely flog these engines rotating them different directions to simulate g-forces of cornering, braking and accelerating.

Plans for a racing variant, the HurriCrate Cat X crate engine, are currently under development for race applications, including a future Drag Pak.

Cat 1 Crate Engine Highlights:
Twin turbocharged with liquid charge-air cooling turbos delivers 22 psi of peak boost
Cast aluminum pistons with cast iron top ring land insert
10.4:1 compression ratio with premium fuel recommended
Single high-pressure direct fuel injection with pump actuated by a dedicated chain-driven shaft
Engine-mounted water-to-air charge cooler with a dedicated cooling circuit with single inlet

Cat 3 Crate Engine Highlights:
Twin Garrett turbochargers with liquid charge-air cooling turbos delivers 26 psi of peak boost
Enhanced performance is delivered by lightweight, oil-jet cooled, forged aluminum pistons with an anodized top ring land and a diamond-like coating (DLC) on the pins to minimize friction
9.5:1 compression ratio with premium fuel recommended
Dual high-pressure direct fuel injection with pumps actuated by a dedicated chain-driven shaft
Engine-mounted water-to-air charge cooler with a dedicated cooling circuit with dual inlet

Additional HurriCrate engine series highlights include:
Two low-inertia, high-flow turbochargers, each feeding three cylinders, for rapid response to throttle inputs
Plasma Transfer Wire Arc (PTWA) coating in the cylinder bores for an ultra-thin, low-friction wear surface
Dual overhead camshafts with wide-range, fully independent variable valve timing
Dual water-cooled exhaust manifolds integrated in the cylinder head
