being into rallying ive always needed a large torque motor, yet most people have never really experianced big torque from low down, most tuners would sell you an engine with large hp yet the torque figures have generally been piss poor, where as your motors always seam to deliver the grunt, may need to have a chat about the new motor for my new car
cheers

I cant imagine how FAST it must be...

Having 700 odd bhp and then flicking the NOS switch....CRAZY is the only word

Went from pleased and excited for you both, to saddenend and feeling low for you both in one topic.

Real bad news fellas, sorry to see it.

Fab power graph though, could be the best i have ever seen.

No chance of that
When a liner moves in a block its usually down to block distortion
And those liners were specked for a fousand break
Torque monster

from 4000 rpm to 5000 rpm it gains over 300 hp !!
thats mental !!
the failure is propper gutting
but if the soultion is already afoot and more power on the horizon its all good.great torque too.
MAD ! ! !! !!! !!!!

that engine holds the torque well across the rev range thats would have been a seriouly fast engne
