Mark is trying to produce a road engine that has 600+ torque at 4.5k & holding it past 6.5k & make as much Power as is possible without losing that Torque curve its taking time & a few probs on the way. Should see circa 780/790 soon & with 240shot of gas now installed should see that 1000bhp we will of course be getting it R-R on the gas & Dyno Dynamics reps will be called in to make sure its all fair & square.
sounds good Rod.. should be an interesting run for you and the MAD work force,
i am interested in a few small wispers ive heard coming from over the water that 1000+hp has just been achived.. BUT i could be wrong, watch this space... oh and good luck with your engine.
