What turbo does Ken run?
Is that Full Race Top Mount EFR8374 or EFR7670?

He used to run 2.3 by RS Motors, with EFR7163.
Than...he changed turbo., to probably win on big tracks.

LOL, Its likely Ken doesnt know. I didnt ask any of the crew guys (sorry).

The older motor was the Ronnie built RS Motor but, The new motor is a 2.3 AMS motor that their own shop has had a hand into. The head was done by Lingenfelter. Motor runs on race E85 (always a solid 85%)

Pretty wild Ken does not know..somebody assembled it, somebody in the team has to know. Its easy to read off it, because its on top.
Not a very important concern, just question.

Yeah, Ken might know, but ive heard him in interviews where some of those engine details were not know by him (he's just the owner / driver . He has a full team of guys, transporter & team photographer. He is a super busy Gent, to say the least.

Great personality & enjoyed spending time w/him

Heres his rig (Team Name: Showtime Motorsports)
