My dad is only 6 years older than you Rod, he's a Cosworth nut and enjoyed 150mph topspeed runs on early Sunday mornings exactly 20 years ago when he first bought his Saph', he's been very content with 300hp for the last 10 years, you are nuts mate.........

The thought of using a GT42 (or bigger) a couple of years ago for a "road" engine was hilarious and not to be taken seriously, to pull it off is amazing.
750 on pump fuel with a torque curve like that is just ridiculous.......rock on

For what you and Mark have both achieved, I think is fantastic, well done.




Chip, is measuring the combined area under both power and torque curves a fairer way to compare all types of engines?
