i think what he meant is the turbo shown looks like its on a v8 mustang not a 2.2 4pot cosworth so ofcourse lag wouldnt be as much of an issue.
if it was sarcasm then i retract my statement in full

Maybe going for a half fill to help the block live?
The general opinion seems to be you can fill to the bottom of the waterpump and it be fine on road and track as long as you run a massive oil cooler to compensate.

The new Block is improved in several ways to aid cooling so it should be OK, other Tuners run 850+ on a similar 200 block.
Both the Turkish blocks failed short of 750horses after only a few miles.
It still may fail but we wont know until we try.

Mark, Rod: You are both out of your minds!
But damn if I dont have the upmost repsect for that
Best of luck with it guys, I'm sure it will be insane. Looking forward to seeing more news on the engine as it comes.
