D, look forward to seeing the end result buddy. I'm about to start back on mine once I can get some strength in my left hand. Don't know if you saw or not, I'm working on billet oil pump gears and valve covers. I'll keep you updated by text.

Understandable, glad we can agree on this. Displacement definitely helps with hitting the higher power numbers. In a game that used to be, we turbo our I4, V6, I6 to beat on V8s and such, now has come to well our little motors are basically screwed compared to the likes of the V8s and higher. American stuff us just cheap compared to our builds. Like D here, my car isn't going anywhere so I may as well see what I can do with my motor. Hopefully billet mains, sleeves, and billet girdle, I'll be able to keep my block together. Still even if I make my goal, I'm still pushing harder to make the power these other cars will make with less effort. Sucks, but it is what it is. I'm not making a lambo killer, just making something to have fun with and beat some of the pecker measurers that have no clue what they are doing besides putting their right foot down. I'm sure if we all could, we'd be jumping ship to a V10 platform or something of that nature. Just not going to catch me in an American car, well maybe the new viper or z06 but that's really pushing it.

I agree completely with you Total D. You could always put an american V8 in your car and boost it and make the power pretty easily. If I remember right, the 350z diff will hold the power, but even the 1400 hp axles can snap at about 800tq.
I would like a 5th gen Viper myself...

More like got thrown from the bike, highside lol. Totaled the bike . Dang sorry to hear about that man. Glad you still with us and it was in a parking lot. On the main roads it could have been a lot worse. At least you still have something ride. Blown motor? Man your luck right now needs to turn around. I keep saying I'm going to start on mine but other things come up that need to be taken care of before I mess with the car. Good luck on the build and recovery.
