LMAO! I haven't heard anyone talk about a "3/4 race cam" since the late 70's. Classic. I also used to hear guys tell me they had a "Corvette motor" under the hood. Oooooo, hopefully not the feared L-48 350!

Nice work, Dustin.

If you just wanted posts to stroke your ego then you probably should have left the turbo reference out of the thread name.

Thanks for the tip. Yes, cooler air is denser, but not 300hp.

Also, the 557 vs 582 debate.... If you compared a 557 vs 582 where both motors had the same specs (cam, compression, heads, intake, etc...), there would be approximately 1lb of boost difference.

Regardless, great numbers Dustin, I know it wasn't easy

Can't wait to see how it runs in your monster cat!

This is also not the our biggest intercooler setup, which at this level, adds almost 75hp. This also did not have our new bigger throttle bodies. So this was not done to go 500 hours, and believe it or not, I do know what it takes to maintain a 7300rpm.

Start a different thread if you want a twin screw vs turbo debate.

Glad to see the old Dustin is back!

Thanks for your kind reply

Inregards To your closing comment, your thread title seemed very inviting with you confidence / new power package.

Again best wishes with your continued testing.

Jon
