So people don't exaggerate my claims!!!! Also I not in a spelling B contest, I am in a war to prove my fine tuned and stock mod engine claims are true. Come on I cannot believe no one has pushed 300hp on a stock sc400 motor without nos, or air forced induction. That is just stupid to me. Maybe my dyno tests were wrong and I have had three done in a years time. Maybe I am just making all this up to stir up some crap, but the reality is I am not. Believe what you want, I know what I got, I just raced a saleen on the freeway and lost riding nos my top end is weak, know that is not braging is it. But my low end is rediculous.
Jibbby, no one I've ever read about has come remotely close to that even with a VVT-I 98+ engine w/o FI or Nitrous.... max dyno I've seen is around 275rwhp, average is more like 250rwhp. I assume you're talking about RWHP when you say 'no one close to 300hp'. 97- is ususally at least 20hp less from what I've read.

So you have a 450 rwhp dyno too? Or is that what you interpret from the 315 rwhp (which with 25% loss is really 420hp at the crank). If you *really* have a 450rwhp dyno then you've got a 600HP at the crank engine . That I've got to see.

When do you want to set up the dyno?

Hey, I just searched on e-bay with the key word that you suggested. I don't see sht.
Give us the item number. The mods will understand since you are not advertising, plus nobody will want it anyways.
Again, give us the item number.

And I am S.T.I.L.L waiting for your e-mail.

Those are bold words man...what's up with bashing Todd?

If it were between him and you on who can build a 1200hp SC...I got all my money on Todd...

I know you have a passion for our V8 engine, but man, calm down with all your figures and lets just go to a dyno...

Oh, here's pictures of your car
Whats up with the VVT-i badge?

Chrono, no need for an item number. If he just listed it the listing will be a while before it shows up. If you wanna know PM him

With you mentioning the PM 3 times within the last 30 minutes I believe he understands he is to send you a PM, please don't appear to badger. You're going to get yourself in trouble.

I like the clever use of the Flags to cover up the holes from removing the 400 emblem
