I'd like to get it machined before the open house, but its not looking good so far.
Anyway, from what I've heard, the wet sleeve block made about 630hp, I never saw the dyno sheet, but it seems to pull really hard at 5000 rpm. Its left some brown in my underwear a few times in 3rd gear.

That's absolutely Awesome!

How was the engine dressed out to do 630Hp?
Single 4, F.I? what heads, cam, intake?

I'm interested in a block if you build them.
Thanks, Curtis
