Ford 4.0L 6 Cylinder SOHC and DOHC 998GT-A Long 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, so 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.
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!
MY2011 Atomic 998GT-A Long 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)

checked for index/stroke, 2 stage Heat treatment
(normalise and stress relieve), reground/indexed
as required, micropolished journals and
chamfered oil holes.

cell - verify all vitals of the engine (oil
pressure hot and cold, ring bed-in, cylinder %
leak down, lifters bled, etc) and report
supplied.
Supply detailed specs report of engine and
run-in procedure sheet
Supply 8 litres of Castrol ProTec run-in oil
Supply genuine Ford oil filter
24 months warranty
Fitting one of our engines to a non-original
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!
Atomic engines and components are engineered,
dynoed, track tested and fully warranted to give
you confidence you wont be let down in the heat
of competition.
