First question - Desktop Dyno says 478hp @ 6000-6500rpm, 454 ft/lb @ 5000rpm. does this sound correct?
Second question - Will the stock block, crank & rods live long making that kind of power? (I've heard that 400 is about as much as you want to do.)
Third question - What kind of ET/MPH?
Fourth question - When you are looking for 400HP and get 475HP is that a good thing? LOL
