265-270 bhp Please! And to quote this as bhp without a flywheel dyno is a JOKE! [/B]
Loren, Steve Weiner has a flywheel dyno, where do you think the numbers come from? Call him up and talk to him yourself and have him send you dyno sheets. I don't have any interest in getting in a war of words with you.

EDIT: You honestly believe a 3.5L twin-plugged Motronic won't make 260-270 bhp and still be smog legal? It should make approximately 240 bhp (assuming stock is actually 217) just by changing to 100mm pistons & cylinders, let alone intake & exhaust work, cam selection, twin-ignition with higher compression, chip programming, etc. I guess we'll see whose right in about 6-8 weeks. Won't be able to get the motor on an engine dyno, but will go on a chassis dyno after engine break-in. At least this will give some sort of indication what flywheel horsepower would be.
