The crank won't hold together with that much power. They are good for up to about 350 hp reliably. If he wanted to build a more powerful engine and make it reliable then he should build a 3.4.

I plan on doing one eventually. It just takes about 5 grand and some time. That engine is good for about 300/300 and should be very reliable.

If he had posted that here, it would have been worse. At least they were being nice...

ouch - I forgot to warn Ben that you can't go cocky on Pirate or they'll hand you your ass... Nissancrawler was actually being very helpful - hopefully he'll take what he said to heart and ignore the rest

I'm confused. Was he being serious? Why would anyone want to even attempt 450HP w/ such a gutless motor? It would PROBABLY be easier and/or cheaper to just swap in a VQ35 out of a junked z or even an older VG30DET.

He's just young and dreaming big I think...

Personally, I'd LOVE to have about 200 at the wheels. That would be so nice smile
