BlueOval,

Wow, that sounds impressive! But, for that kind of money, I would have to find a side oiler. It would provide much more value to my car.

Now if you engineered a means of variable valve timing to make torque across the rpm range, it would be much more attractive. It's very hard to design VVT in a pushrod engine, though. I would expect that an engine with your specs would be pretty flat off the line and to start producing some power about 4,000 rpm. I built an engine like that and it was a pain around town. Great on the track though!

The covers for the hemi head could be very attractive. Should be a strong selling point. Any pictures?

Paul
