Heat is a product of HP ... always look at the hp outputof an engine and ti s"novel" cooling mods before making conclusions!

Itt is a fact that stock water jackets cool at least 700 crank hp and over 570 rwhp!

Maybe the factory knew what they were doing here?

So when are we going to see a 6.5L supermodel out there? Maybe you should try one on the white car just for a dyno run to see what is possible? With the Motec and race gas you could run pretty high boost safely?... 700+rwhp or more should be easy on that car!

I am running 500 rwhp with a stock manifold, 550 rwhp with the Ott/Thomas intake, and I would be at 600 rwhp with my larger intake TB (currently on Don H 575 rwhp engine, my replacement TB STILL have not shipped after almost 9 months).

700 rwhp is easy to do on my engine....big intake and a 100 hp shot of nitrous will do the trick.

But better yet is the low compression 5.4 with a SModel charget bolted up....

BTW Brian, one the flanges are finished, I have that exhasut testing To do....
