Sorry to rain on your party Bob, but I have to put a stop to this
BS. 45 % mean your getting about 135 HP out of a WB. NO Chance that
this motor would stay together very long. No bolt on option is
going to get to this type of HP. Only a major porting, and a complete
rework of the fuel management system, would this be possible, but
industrial straingth stupid. Keep dreaming....or maybe wake up and
turn the page. I'm sick of hearing this BS, on the list. Flame
suit ready!
