I've done my research and my conclusion to the absence of high powered 1UZ's is expense, that is changing pretty fast lately actually. Heard cases of 800+ hp 1UZ's on stock internals but I can't confirm, I don't doubt it though, those aussies are crazy.

Here's a 1005hp 1UZ car you might want to read up on.

Turbo 1UZ powered cobra




I think this was pretty cool, old article from 03'. This sucker has 555,000 miles. How many trips to the moon is that lol


I'm pretty tired but that's a little on Toyota's flagship V8. I have more info on it on my other computers if your interested I can post later
I'm always interested in learning more about different engines, and how people think about solving similar problems. Maybe make a 1UZ thread in the Engine Building section.
