Think my daughter's face sums it up well tho 🤣 "the face you make when the boost hits" 🤣🤣 (and before any Karen's chirp up, I drive like a grandma with the kids in it, she thinks the sttuussttuuu noises are brilliant even at 25mph) haha.  Brilliant picture....... Cheers! She absolutely loves it. And fact she enjoys going in summat I've built as much as she does makes it feel a bit special. |

Can only really play this game if I put my bet in... And cus I built it (and learnt as I went with no prior experience of summat this big)...
I'm going with a conservative 516bhp... Tbh I set out to make 500 at crank.. I'm still amazed summat I made (over 18 months of an hour here and an hour there with 2 kids a busy job, the Rona and however many other excuses I can make) makes 405 haha
Alsong as it comes back with all 8 rods in all 8 holes il be happy

My guess is 475, but a much higher increase in torque (say 70bhp/100lb-ft).

Rust is lighter than Carbon Fibre which is why old Fords are so fast.
