    Hey Eric, how does that work?

     



    I just read a thread back in Nov of 06 where you said its a myth that you cant get 500hp out of a chevy sb for 500 bucks. If I read that right, How would you go about that?

    I think I might of been talking about a magazine article that came out sometime in the 80's when they tried to get by on the cheap.
    On a good engine you will have 500 or more in the machine work.
    I am not saying all engines need this but if you are trying to build 500+ hp you will have to some "trick" machine work.
