    If i had to stick around for 18 more years it would be me signing my own cheques,i was self employeed for 20 years ,now i just play the stock market and buy and sell land , buy blue chip in natural gas or hydro electric now ,you wont loose ,just have to sit on your stock for 12 to 18 months and make 25-40% profit.

    I think i shut a few loud mouth unbelievers up ,lol

    486 HP and 440 f/lbs of torque on 94 octaine pump gas at 7000 RPM. With stronger valve springs and larger air/fuel jets 510 hp. I already posted the dyno graph on another thread three weeks ago . Bevs 400 HP 347 will be ready at the end of this month ,it took me loger than i thought as i have three hipo engines being built at the same time and the machine shop cant get them done for me on my schedule,so i have to waite ,i could of got 480 out of Bevs engine also but she asked me to tame hers down for more street driving ,so i gave hers less compression and less cam . Oh as for my engine specs ,ill keep them a secret from most and a few will know ,lol Jimmy ,i said it could be done and i did it ,ps Thanks Stephan Moore.
