4g63 makes massive hp, probably at least 1000, shep runs sub 9sec at 2650????
Is 2650 supposed to be a hp number?
And I know the 4G is a good motor, but 1000hp isn't as reliable on that motor like it would be on others Granted, I've seen stock block Evos belt out over 500, but anything over 550 is pushing it.
I think the best way to say it, is that a stock cast iron block will take a LOOOOT more power, boost and abuse than a stock aluminum block ever will.

sorry, 2650lb is shep's race weight.
why can't some good sleeving solve the problem? hasn't a b-series block been pushed to 700+hp? good aluminum block with some hefty sleeves and perhaps some reinforcing should have no problem with the kind of abuse that cast iron takes -
Wow theres a ton of options. I might just stick with a pretty simple inline 4. Maybe 4 valve dohc. The rotary would be awesome but I don't think I have the time or smarts to design it. Where could I find some blueprints or somethin so I could get some design help?
