Doug Stirling's escort was dyno'd at 564bhp on a standard crank and rods, on a GT35R, on a .63 rear housing.

I think his point is that its possible on 2.0 litres on a YB with a GT35R
As opposed to a stroker motor like martins/rods/daves etc

My old engine made 606bhp about 5 years ago on a GT35! at just 7500rpm. It would have been making alot more at 8300rpm which is what it reved to in car as well! MUCH nicer engine on a GT30 though!
