I have been guaranteed that there is a lot more than just extra webbing at the bottom as I have heard said before.
Even with the few years that I have had a interest in Cosworths I like others can think of a fair few 500+ hp engines that were built from 200 blocks with long studs and haven't failed, and thats just local to me.
Funny how all of a sudden everyone is on the bandwagon saying that 200 blocks are crap, long studs dont work etc..
yet for the last 20 years people have been using them with no problem whatsoever. (apparently)
IMO there is a lot more people around these days willing to build you a big power YB when in reality only 3/10 of all the tuners actually know what their talking about.
Apparently anyone these days can build you a reliable 500hp Yb for less than the next tuner
yet how many do you see that actually perform like 500 bhp
Stick with tried and tesetd methods that have proven to work
