I talked to a customer in NY a few days ago who said he does the full race, port and polish, domed pistons, modern ign. balanced crank, high tech con and main bolts etc. and gets 194 hp out of a 251. I sounded so amazed that he said, "well... of course that is at 5000 rpm". Lets see with stock gears that would be 90 mph. Gives me a nose bleed just thinking about it!
