Bob builds marine HP engines, and you've "been calling him out", but insist he build a car engine? Based on you not wanting to go max power for long periods, that's what you are saying. Hell I've got a stock 300 HP Mercruiser that sees WOT for 20 minutes at a time.

You came to his turf, compete on his turf.

So you do build marine engines but only with dry exhaust?

Did you ever notice that Bob's business is called Marine Kinetics, not dynoshootoutkinetics? While I have absolutely no doubt that Bob would embarass you, even on your terms, why would he bother? WTF does he have to prove to you? Everyone here knows who he is.

You have tried this dyno challenge on just about every website out there, and then called everyone cowards because they wouldn't do it. While, now you have your Yes, so Put up or Shut up.
We can hammer out the fine details but, since this is a performance boating website the only thing set in stone is WOT for at least 20mins on 89 octane, just like in a boat. If you can't do that then go ask for a shootout on an automotive foum.. Thanks, Alex THE ONLY THING SET IN STONE IS THE WOT FOR 20 MINS ON 89 OCTANE. production 454 block and heads, any thing else goes, dyno test at Mike Lewis and if his water is not sufficent then Westec. 10 grand winner takes all, money held by Mike Lewis 30 days prior to the test, HP dyno pulls first, then 20 mins @ 6500 RPM full load, water changed after each test, you go first endurance expert, thats the stipulations, you turned this into a endurance test, you cant have every thing your way. After all it is a boat forum, Lets go.......

VP,

Don't listen to your boat consultants, this is your chance to prove what you have been fighting about with people all over the internet for some time now. Stepping out of your normal realm and beating a respected entity at his own game with inferior parts would pretty much put the exclamation point behind your company name. Marine engines aren't really that difficult if I could figure them out!
