Buying an engine on credit or a loan is not the smartest thing to do. I can testify to that.

i have near heard a bad thing about Nelsons work! also he is coming out with some VERY intresting stuff! he uses CAST standless steel exhaust components, simetrical turbos (L & R handed), Biliet intake manifolds that house EVERYTHING under the intake and they are looking to develop 4 valve per cyclinder heads for the SBC.....

would love on of his engines one day.

Chris.

Has anyone ever seen one of his engines at the track actually put down a number though? Ive seen plenty of his videos where hes like 1700hp this, 2800hp that. but it could all be a bunch of BS. How come you never see any 7 second NRE cars on youtube? Just always wondered

His setups are legit but most who know what they're doing can build a setup that makes similar power for half the cost give or take.

You show me a builder that can that motor with a turbo kit , fuel management ,etc.,etc. for half. Bull ****. motor alone with the sheet metal is between 30-35 through any top builder.I know,i've built one. 15k more for a turbo kit and full engine dyno tune and break in doesn't sound like a bad deal at all. IMO Sure you can through a 15k longblock in there that will make the same "power" but for how long?
