Let the HP wars begin-  Ok, so this will be old school Glenn against--Rock Star Ben. 
Alright I'll check it out. I don't want any excuses from you when I kick your ass. I can say I got my machine work from the same place you did. 
Still kinda far away.
But, do you anyone with a truck that I use to get the block there?
I want something closer so I can go bug them everyday. But, it can be a back up.

I know someone, but it may cost you.

HP numbers are good and all, but they are like asking someone how much they can bench. What difference does it make if I can still kick your ass?

As soon as I get my check and decide which way I'm going engine size, I'm going to start mine. So all I have to do is beat the current LS motor. Hell, that should not...........................................
You know I'm kidding right??????

Well, I might do little things like LTs and a retune, which should put me at about 430WHP (rough, but fair guess). To be comparable you would only need roughly 500BHP.
Check? You mean a $250 stimulus check.

I can do 500 hp with a 400 SBC in my sleep--Yea,in my dreams.
No I was talking T-Bird check.
I going to get the block done with part of that. That's why I have to decide on the cubic inches.
I can do the 400 block for either the 377 or 404 (.020 over) or 406 (.030 over)  .

If you go to santa ana speed talk to mike tell him Jerry with the turbo Impala sent you...not sure if they still use the machine shop anymore but worth a shot.

Well, you did beat Pony Boy in a race.  Did you use Santa Ana Speed for your machine work?
