bapapp15,
If you know the pluses and minuses of living with such an engine and you're willing to tolerate its shortcomings on the street, then Brent Lykins can build it. But I urge you to pay attention to those who have learned what its like to live with a race engine the hard way. Generally speaking, engines optimized to operate up to 7500 RPM are not much fun below 3500 RPM, which is where you'll be 95% of the time on public roads. More than a few hotrodders have paid a lot of money for engines that are more fun to brag about than to drive.
