However I do run standard crank engines up to 8500rpm, but again on a GT30 engine you'll simply not be making power up to that rpm.
On the subject, do you think a GT35 is too big for a road car? 2.0 engine.
Yes, nasty laggy things compared to a GT30, and 500bhp+ is plenty for a road car IMHO

Depends on your own outlook on what makes a good car though at the end of the day!
Power everywhere, not at 78,000 RPM ...

I ask as I have a brand new GT35 sat under my desk looking bored ... YB's don't take stroking/boreing to 2.2/2.3 very well so I have heard? , apparently the old 2.4 conversions were quite slow revving?

Just wondering about the big capacity route as well as apparently the Evo engines (6/7/8) , and I know they are a completely different beast , go to 2.3 easy and a GT35 on those is phenominal?
