    V8 are not always best

    :laugh: My first car- 1987 Toyota Camry took out a 79 cargo van V8 with two cylinders running. Was the slowest and sadest race ever. Now I got a good V8 though. It is sort of sad that a 455 only makes double the horsepower of some engines that are 1/8 the size. To bad they don't make like 800 hp stock.

    Yeppers...
    im from back in the days of Marvin Miller Nitrous system & 10,000 rpm systems ... , I think it was a cheata system.. lol

    ....remember when jenkins(grumpy) & shafiroff tested a new Nitrous system(Mike Thermos and Dale Vaznaian), on a street car(nova w/ sbc). The car ran 10.0's ( the days when 12.00's was flying), that was the real beginning for this new company.. N.O.S

    give us DOHC, 32valves, FI and 4 bolt mains and i don't think 800hp would be a problem for us either.
