I believe you mis-read my message regarding the request for some information about your engine.

I am not concerned with BB verses SB arguements. I don't want to argue at all. What a person wishes to run in their personal car is their personal choice. That's what makes building your own car so much fun. Heck run a Brigg's & Stratton if you like'em.

What I am interested in your engine results as you have shared some insight about flow characteristics. This topic is of great interest to me and I would enjoy the numbers your engine ended up producing and compare them against the flow rates your heads produced.

Also, I never mentioned that I am an FE engine guy. That's not in my profile nor can I remember putting what type of engine I like on the websight. I just like cars (all types) , engines (all types)and producing efficient combinations or the two (all types).

If you wish not to share this information I would understand. I just wanted to learn from your personal engine building experience.

But no arguements please, I have a wife and a teenage daughter for that.

No. I believe their invitation is sincere and just a friendly invite.

However, if I go and I'm not back in 24 hours call the police!

AFR uses the rule of thumb:
HP (potential) = 0.2575*number of cyl.* CFM of intake at peak cam lift.

Which for 8 cylinder is like 2 times the CFM of the intake. For the AFR 225 and an 8 cyl.:

HP = 0.2575 * 8 * 315 CFM (~at 0.574") = 634 HP

Mine made 615.
