    9whp is pretty hard to gain for NA IMO.... but rare.

    any update?

    * That's what I said. What could make it a better argument is power gained over base. For ex - dyno a stock LS/V, then Mike's old block - figure out the HP increase (as a percentage). Then do the same for a stock K and see what the HP gain is --> as a percentage. THEN you can compare diff blocks, diff engines (etc) and claim your N/A prowess as "I made XX% more WHP on a N/A build than that other guy." Even doing it THAT way is not 100% fair, but more fair than comparing the actual WHP of a B build vs a K build.

    * IMO Mike was one of the 1st, and that will be remembered for a long time. Hell, kids these days have the "recipes" online for them - the blueprint is there for NE1 who has the heart, time and the $$ to do so. The only downside to Mike's build is that he can't drive for shit - LOL. And 2, he never put it on the track as much as he should to really dial it in. But in a way that takes away from it, and for the 1st time I can see how timeslips do not matter. I play on the street, and that makes me happy. But I will track my block at least once next Spring.
