GEORGE Separovich of Blown Motorsports in Western Australia is a racer, car builder, jack of all trades, and just happens to build the absolute baddest blown and injected V8 engines in the country. Seriously, asking this guy to build you a donk would be like asking McLaren to build you a road car.
George first hit the limelight with a legendary burnout at Motorvation in 2004 with his stunning blown and injected, small-block Chevpowered HK Monaro. It was in a class of its own back then, and George has had a bunch of tough cars since, while also building engines for many of the modern burnout champions. Just take a look at Justen Brown’s legendary WONAGO VG ute, for example.
For George, perfection has no boundaries, and his motors are famous for massive revs and boost, perfect tune-ups, and, above all, incredible reliability. One only has to look at Matt James’s incredible efforts at Summernats 31 in 2018, when he claimed first and second in the Burnout Masters in two different cars, both with Blown Motorsports-built engines.
Bigger is always better in a blown motor – except when it comes to cubic capacity. So when this maestro decides to build a bit of a skid pig for himself, you know it’s going to be a kick-arse, small-cube deal. Who other than Separovich would put a PSI blower on a 305ci Chevy small-block – and have it make an awe-inspiring 1300hp and buzz to 10,000rpm? That’s just what he did with his current skid weapon, a VF Commodore SS called NUTTR.
“Those PSI blowers are just an air pump,” George reasons. “I could get one to work on a lawnmower if I wanted to. Everyone else couldn’t get it right, so I was determined to run one.”
