TURK,

Regardless of horsepower claimed or actual, I would like to know who has put some significant street miles on one of these and what their experience has been like. After all, I view an engine builder's dilemna as having to deal with the balance of HP versus reliability. It is an age old problem everyone including racers out there faces, and I feel it is relevant to the discussion at hand. Look at how many racing sanctioning bodies (road racing wise) now make racers race in the same engine they qualify in.

It is one thing for someone to post a dyno sheet, it is another to also say that the engine has given 20,000 or more trouble free miles. We have only heard HP discussion from KeithCraft owners, and I am curious who has some significant miles with one.
