Supercars will randomly allocate Gen3 V8 engines to teams. RepcoSC
The next-gen cars will be powered by completely new engines that are more heavily based on production units than the current pushrod V8s.
KRE and HPE will then supply motors directly to Supercars, which will run every single unit on its own dyno before randomly allocating them to teams. "We need to build all these engines, make sure they are all within a tolerance that we're comfortable with, then we'll randomly select where they go up and down the pitlane."
"We will pluck engines randomly and check what their degradation is and give them back to them," said Burgess."Because this is a learning process for the category and the engine builders." Supercars has had to alter how it measures Accumulated Engine Power as well given it is now paritising two distinctly different motors in the overhead cam Ford and the pushrod Chevrolet.
