First off I wish I had this much money now to actually build this engine. I was bored and thinkin about how I wish I was already done w/ my schooling so I could start having some toys. One of my automotive goals is a prostreet '66 coupe...nice partial tube chassis, fiberglass front clip, doors, trunklid, MII front suspension, 4-link rear narrowed 35 spline 9" w/ spool and 5.13s, gutted, caged interior. Ya know...nice grocery getter. Well...I can say that I will eventually build me a track car like that...for now though its a far off dream I will hafta work for...but I figured I'd just try to get a guestimate on an engine combo. Just because it makes me smile.

-SVO 460cid block
-billet stroker kit 806 cu. in. (bored to 4.625)
-Eliminator racing heads, 2.43 intake valves, 1.88 exhaust valves, BBC exhaust ports raised, heavy port/polishing and all springs/valves race quality and matched to the rest of the engine. 82cc combustion chamber.
-1.7 roller rockers
-CompCams mechanical roller custom ground 6500-9000rpm
-gear driven
-trickflow/weiand tunnel ram port matched to heads
-dual alchohol 950cfm Race Demons
-custom Big friggen headers
-oiling/fuel systems all professionally up to par w/ engine
-full MSD ignition

Of course the actual engine would be alot more technical with things like fasteners and such for an engine to turn that many rpm...but just for my curious little head...what Kind of power might that make?

At least GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG. That is 50 G's. That many cubes + that many rpm's = lots of consumable parts. Did you hit the lottery?

I know it's a very very very distant dream...once again speculation is fun. I think it could be a 25kish engine. No chance anytime soon once again but I want to some day have some big prostreet coupe like that...maybe just one of those things that take a decade to build...little by little...and I should be makin some pretty good money in the automotive field. I still wanna know what kinda hp/torque that could produce....
