The Top Sportsman Firebird will initially
be powered by this New Century Performance built Sonny’s
headed 632.
The engine is based on a New Century
10.4” deck, half water, aluminum main cap block.
We selected a Callies 4.750” stroke Magnum and run
Callico coated bearings. GRP 5300 series aluminum rods
connect to a set of gas ported Arias pistons. The short
block is topped with CNC ported Sonny’s 14.5 degree heads
flowing through a CFE fabricated intake manifold. A pair
of Pro-Systems Nitrous Series carbs perform the air and fuel
metering. An single stage NOS Pro-Fogger system
will perform the “power adder” duties.
