Herrod Performance Engines is working with Ford Performance on Ford’s Gen3 engine program, and speaking to AUTO ACTION, Rob Herrod says the program is proceeding well. The Supercars Gen3 development team is also keen to extend the time between rebuilds to reduce the cost of each team’s engine program. Working closely with Supercars Gen3 development team, Herrod Performance Engines is working to match several metrics on the engine to ensure parity, including power, fuel usage, weight, centre of gravity (COG) and moment of inertia (MOI).
