Jim...guess the guys here don't like V-8's??? Cant figure out why not, tho...after all, v-8's power the more exotic Porsches...928, Cayenne, and the new 4 door sedan.

The piston speed @7k is 5250! it has a 4.5 inch stroke or 114.3 mm stroke!

My 331 inch motor had a piston speed of only 3,791 feet per second

the famed honda s2000 engine has a 3.31" stroke with a piston speed of 4,965 fps
