I'd love to see the "torque" curve..."I am not what you so glibly call to be a civilized man. I have broken with society for reasons which I alone am able to appreciate. I am therefore not subject to it's stupid laws, and I ask you to never allude to them in my presence again."Comment

400 HP/280ft-lbs... 1.5L.. wtf?
It's a race car engine, so you can bet it performs.
I doubt an ecotec that runs 6s in the 1/4 has a flat torque curve either.'89 Firebird, 3500 Turbo, T56, 9-bolt/4.11

the intake and exhaust design are excellent (duh), but I want to see the combustion chamber and the pistons
Hell, all the specs on the motor would be nice to have. They mention friction reduction, and the oil being used. Not sure on the accuracy but I was told that the oil doesn't allow hydrocarbons to contaminate/attach itself, so friction is greatly reduced and clearances can be tighter. I repeat, not sure on the accuracy but some research on Total might be worthwhile:P

I didn't say it would have a flat curve, just that it would be interesting to see.Originally posted by caffeine View Post"I am not what you so glibly call to be a civilized man.

Other than the weight of the engine this is not a big deal.
In 2005 A N/A 3.0L V10 From Merc or BMW made 900hp to 930hp and had to last a minimum of two race weekends.
Back in the turbo era of the 70's they were making 500hp from a turbo 1.5L and up to 1300hp during qualifying. Back then they were aloud to use as many engines as needed to get through the weekend.1993 EXT. CAB, 3.4L V6 TBI, 5spd manual. Sonoma
