Re: 479whp ~ 427 ft/lbs on OEM Longblock!

You two got married?

Once again I'm not worried about the 1g rods. I am worried about the pistons. 2g pistons are known to hold up to substantially more abuse than the thin land 6bolt pistons. I have seen countless burnt/cracked ringlands on OE 6bolt motors. I must say that Nash's motor did take a SHIT TON of abuse though. I've never thought a motor was going to blow up so much in my entire life than when I heard he was running 40lbs.

We'll see what happens and what Alex wants to do. I think if we hit 510-520whp and take it to the track, we might like the results! There will be no C16! E98 will probably max out his injectors, so we are stuck with E85. Hopefully the Walbro 255HP can keep up.
