I'm with Jeff on this...I have built a few 2.7RS-ish engines......9.5:1 JEs, various cams, headers, sport muffler etc. These are good for 230HP or so.....185 to the wheels... ......which is a butt-load of fun in a light 911 or 914-6 hotrod.
Producing another 100 HP at the wheels would take some serious juju!
