Thats a nonsense, yes doug wants it reliable and strong, but he has never wanted it to be under 500bhp, nor is it normally, its only because he had an inlet restriction caused by lack of throttle it was so far down on power.

It'll do 500 mate, no bother, and like you say its running sweet as a nut since the rebuild, from what Doug said even Karl commented that it all seemed spot on.
