But still if you are to buy one of these engines in a crate 400 flywheel HP is just a bolt on or two away. But my point being it's there for the taking without going inside of the motor. Now 400 to the rear wheels a whole different ball game. And that ball game goes as follows, a good cam, headers and y-pipe, and a good tune. And I have done it with as little as a 228 cam, headers and tune.
Ah, gotcha. I see what you're saying now.
