Just finished the 428 swap into my 67 F100. After getting back from the local speedshop, it dyno'ed at 697HP at the rear wheels! :D

Considering the truck doesn't have power steering or power brakes and couple that with a very heavy right foot, this should be fun! [img]smile.gif[/img] :D

Better yet, don't. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I've always been a V-8 man, but let me tell you a friend of mine recently got me interested in building near-race motors for Hondas...I've discovered ways to get well in excess of 600bhp from less than 2 litres of displacement (that's around 120 c.i. - or 5hp/ci)

Combine that with a rail-rocket chassis that weighs under 3000lbs and you have a very fun car to drive.

I really like that type of sneaky overpowering. I had a friend that had a Valiant stationwagon in which we put a 426 hemi. You cannot believe the look on people's faces when you blew them away with a Valiant.

...and a station-wagon to boot. I can just see the baby-seat and the dog with it's tongue out the window as you lay a strip. :D :D
