I guess since I spray 300hp worth of jet myself and actually just did again yesterday on a -9 plug, and always have, that I can say you won't melt the straps off a plug like a snow cone in a furnace like you did putting TR6 plugs in a 13.5:1 compression motor let alone with 300hp worth of jet on it.
Anyone who does what you did and then boast about how right you were for doing so shouldn't be looking down on anyone else for their actions.
I'll find that post just to remind you of what you said.

Which was it 250 or 350?

Camscam also said that the 8 range plug was guess what...too hot.
Now, back to my ignore list.

Both. For a self proclaimed reading expert you don't comprehend very well do you?

Theres no way your anywhere near 70,000 rpm with a tensioner and belt setup and not slipping are you?
I wouldnt build a F1X with a belt no way no how try to drive that geartrain, but yeah if you know you can only run xx,xxx rpm with a belt setup reliably, then make more power NA is your only route. But a air to water setup with a belt?

No buddy, that 5.4 stepup is even killer on a cog.
I gotta a 10 rib bracket that should work-similar setup to that 427F1R-it kicked out 267kpa.
It's 3/4 thick front plate front and rear-with a new billet spring loaded tensioner I'm working on.
The F1X should actually be just a little bit easier than the F1R to turn-because of the volute and the inlet size.
Not trying to set the world on fire but I would like to run just a bit faster.
There's only so much we can throw at the 4L60-and the way the centri's deliver the power helps makes them live.

We've got a couple hundred passes on C5 TT427 making 1300hp on a RPM 4l60e, never skips a beat since it was upgraded to their best model.
Been high 8's @ 161 mph - 3940 lbs race weight in a C5 corvette (heavy car, twin rear mount, 10-point cage, nitrous system/bottle, full interior everything etc).
Car leaves on 200hp nitrous to spool the turbos, 16 psi
