Ford 4.0L 6 Cylinder SOHC and DOHC 698GT-A Series Short Engines
Although we have been building high performance
engines since 1978, it wasnt until 2004 that we
began development work on the Ford 4.0L DOHC 6
cylinder factory turbocharged engine. We
witnessed numerous catastrophic engine failures
after consumers had undertaken simple
modifications such as free flowing exhausts and
cold air intake systems to otherwise stock
vehicles, so it became apparent there was a need
for us to engineer some hard core solutions to
address the inherent factory weaknesses.

The
engines possess an abundance of untapped power
with their large factory fitted Garrett GT35/40
turbocharger; however as the engine internals
are almost directly taken from the original
inline 6 cylinder normally-aspirated engine of
the 1960s they were not designed to handle 21st
century boost-assisted power levels.
We initially developed a lightweight yet durable
billet conrod to work with the 99.31mm (almost
4) stroke crank and before long our customers
were making 450+ RWKW (700+ flywheel HP) with
total reliability. Following this we pinpointed
other engine weaknesses, such as the oiling
system, torsional vibration problems, cylinder
head lifting, airflow distribution problems at
high boost etc and engineered a range of
solutions to suit.
We have seen power levels in excess of 1000KW
(1300HP) with our components, such is the scope
for power from these big cube 6 cylinder power
plants.
We have 2 power levels available; our 698GT-A
Engines are designed to handle up to 698KW
(935HP) and for the seriously power crazed, our
998GT-A Engines (998KW/1330HP) are just the
ticket!

A short motor comprises a race prepped block,
heat treated crankshaft, Atomic billet
Superleggera conrods with pressurised oil feed
to the gudgeon pins, forged pistons with crown
cooling, turbo rings, coated competition
bearings, windage tray, hi-temperature silicon
rear main oil seal, blueprinting, balancing, and
precision assembly, ready for the fitment of
your head, sump and accessories.
Fitting one of our engines to a nonoriginal
application is no problem with our Retrofit
Series. No need to use the original Ford
computer, harness and gearbox - just hook up
your choice of turbo or blower, add your
favourite ECU and you will have the baddest 6
powered car around!
And you also have the option of either an engine
built to your requirements or we can rebuild
your own... the choice is yours!
MY2011 Atomic 698GT-A Short engine specs
Ultrasonic tested block
in 24 spots per block thick walls are required
(we reject 4 in 10 for being like Cleveland
blocks - too thin in spots due to core shift)
Full crankshaft preparation - magnafluxed,
checked for index/stroke, 2 stage Heat treatment
(normalise/stress relieve and temper),
reground/indexed as required, micropolished
journals and chamfered oil holes.
Cosworth F1 Series pistons 8.5: comp
ratio and include coated skirts, anti detonation
bands, polished crowns, H/D pins and piston
crown cooling - an Atomic exclusive. Totally
silent operation.
Cosworth nitro carburised steel turbo rings
Atomic billet Superleggera conrods #306200

ARP 2000 bolts, cylindrically ground/honed
tunnels and pressure fed gudgeons - an Atomic
exclusive
ACL Competition bearings with extra oil feeds
for little end bushes
Fully machined block inc torque plate honed
cylinders, decked to crank centreline, main
saddle alignment checked etc
Race spec clearances to suit the intended
usage
Atomic Induction hardened crank sprocket
Precision balanced
Atomic Billet gear oil pump complete with
EDM cut chrome moly gears, billet end plate
(hard anodized), Grade 10 fasteners, high flow
bypass circuitry and blueprinted clearances.
Fit new brass welch plugs
