you're going to a really thin cylinder wall with your latest overbore, and then trying to throw no less than 100hp over what broke it last time... Theres a real likelyhood that something is gunna give... thats your "damned reason" for it...Damn Daniel It looks like your wanting that s*** to happen, you dont stop saying the same s*** You should feel proud you putted my engine together and car did 474.8 Whp caught on tape and 515whp and 409 lbs torque without a video, The Engine still holding strong and it will to the end theres no damn reason to have a Hole a size of a damn basketball, if that s*** happens Ill buy, import a Block and sell the car and move on to my next dream car in case you dont know

doesn't matter how good your s*** is...if you push it too far, and something lets go, it will tear a hole in your block...
I *honestly* believe, that if you dial the power BACK - you'll have a faster car because you'll get some decent traction for once (having a useful 400 is better than blowing the tires off it at 500, and liquifying them at 600).
That, and your car will be vastly more reliable and last you forever... spend more time wasting euro pasta rockets, and less time looking at your car in pieces..
Methanol - to start with (and not methanol injection, straight up methanol fuel). If not that, leaded race gas, both of which burn cooler and resist detonation more than unleaded gas.If they were able to get there why i'm not going to be able to have 600whp ? you Know..

Add to that those 700+ hp engines are DRAG ONLY motors, they are started, they run 1/4 mile, they are stopped....and they are likely stripped after every meet or so...
that's the kind of company you are trying to keep. Thats why everyone here is ragging on you saying "you're building a race car"...
I honestly take my hat off to you for having the balls to try and do this, but seriously, don't delude yourself into thinking that just because the engine *can* produce that kind of power, doesn't mean its a good idea to build one to do it and expect it to be a daily driver.
Also, as far as I'm aware, you ARE the only person who is driving around a 500+ hp protege on the street...... so you've already got your goal....
and please stop talking about "gapping asses"....
hAhaha.. Thanks Man. I won't lol lol lol
...and move on to my next dream car in case you dont know
Ford Shelby Cobra GT-500 KKR Super Snake !!
Hahaha....okay I'm really confused. That is a pretty badass mustang considering it has over 700 hp from the factory, but how could you go from a great handling MSP with WAY too much power...to an overpriced Mustang with WAY too much power and bad handling?
Sure as s*** looks like a mustang to me.... KKR returned nothing in google automotive related, so I'm assuming you meant KR.
