Thanks for the tip. I'll keep the book simple and with no Bravo Sierra, just straight talk and tips on what works. I've seen some pretty big HP numbers, but the truth is frequently revealed when an engine gets a "pull" on a dyno. And you have it right. It's all about tradeoffs. As for press time, it will be a while. I have to get retired before I can do any serious writing.
