Thanks again John. Its probably better to put that transmission in the 951 Widebody track car where the 80% lockup will be useful and the ratcheting only an issue in the pits, and put the one from that car (normal LSD) in the red car.

How about having the main list for running motors, and I'll keep a second list for motors in progress. Oh, and I like the idea of adding the boost pressure to the HP figures like John did above -- allows for a better sense of the motor. Post away!

Yes I tend to agree. A list for running cars and perhaps a tentative list or "In waiting" list. Besides those of us with an unfinished project won't be able to put down hp figures.

You got it all wrong, the further away the finish date is - the more power my unfinished engine got! I got at least 1000 rwhp. Perhaps 1001 rwhp but I'm a humble person.

List running engines only - there are too many in the works to leave the list clean

Since there are 8V and 16V 2.5L heads (etc) I think the number of valves should be listed in the head description...
Just $0.02 from someone that will probably never have a 3.0L

Yes I agree on listing 8v or 16v too.

Now is that a running motor or does it belong on the "builders" list for now?

Agree about adding if its a 16v -- most so far are 2.7 heads, and therefore presumably 8v. Other entry that occurs to me is to list the builder...

Put it in the builder's list. Hopefully Mr. White can change the status of that soon. And if I have 2 more 'major' RWHP motors being built too, should I list them here under that category?
