How much power are you wanting to make out of this build? I was wondering if you have looked into any of the oiling issues with big horsepower cars. Maybe your not trying to make such killer power but with as much as you are doing I would think you are wanting big power as well. Just thought I would ask.

Mark H.

Yes, Mehovetz and I discussed it and I believe he added the line to support the timing chain. I'm always interested in information you can add, clearly you have explored the depths of this engines power limits. I have lots of hopes for power on fuel X, Y, & Z. Nothing exceeding 2000 hp tho.

Yes, in boxes. Sorry Mark, couldn't resist

I'm calling my therapist now, I hope that you are satisfied.

That's quite a red line! Hope you make it (to the rally)!

It is indeed... The thought of that much displacement at that rpm scares the bajesus outta me. There is lots of cool stuff that you guys haven't seen yet and I'd really like to make down there but I'm not optimistic about it. It would be really depressing to see all of you guys burning up the road and not have my toy to join in... so I will probably stay away if it's not road worthy at that time. It really is close tho. The final phase of the plan (before final assembly) is getting everything coated, painted, anodized, polished, blessed, dipped, ect ... you can see in these pictures that those things are happening. The new harness is complete, Shawn is actively programming the Motec to integrate with the factory ecu (had to keep the factory ecu for the OBDII port). In spite of all of my crying and bitching, Shawn has stayed with his plan (albeit, not his timeline) the whole time.

I think you guys are going to be really impressed to see what is possible when you control the heat related to a supercharged motor. Assuming it actually starts up and runs after all this.
