Jems have built that 1000hp YB, obviously it only lasts about 9 seconds before it self destructs but thats still a bloody powerful YB

Julian Godfrey would be another option as he has specialised in building some massive power Yb's for the rallycross cars.

For road going cars, the only people I know of really are MAD, although I suppose now Martin too on his current car, but im sure any of the tuners can if you have the budget for it.

Why not MAD, Ive certainly never heard a bad work about ANY of mark's work, in fact the only critism ive heard of him at all is he gets booked up too far in advance so engines take a while.

Im sure Martin could reproduce his longblock motor for you though if it really cant be a MAD one for some reason.

JEMS, MAD, Reyland etc.....

have you thought about trying to talk Jenspeed into building you one?

and why didn't you just ask "who can build me a 700+bhp YB" in the first place not are TOTD any good.... surely you've heard the rumours

i am sorry to say that teatime is now over and i am closing this thread due to tonz of people not answering the initial topic but telling me i was shit stirring....

i was actually planning on sending work jenspeeds way but jens now works for a porsche center...so out he is.....then theres the reputed ones we know about like martin and mad as well as harvey, the question was though who else......and i did think about TOTD since i hear / read more and more about them.......

i might have worded it awefully but it was a legitimate question to start out with....

as far as comments about mark shead and myself are concerned, we have had our differencies and neither mark nor myself are intending to do business together but dont have negative feelings about each other, thank you.
