so ur saying he can just put rods and pistons and a turbo kit and make over 400 to the wheels in a otherwise stock d series? no sleeves, no block guard, stock valve train? i usually dont call ppl out on something unitl i PERSONALLY try it myself but that has to be the absoulte dumbest advise ive ever heard.

at what point would a stock d-series float a valve? And how high would he have to rev it to get that power? Past valve float on stock springs im sure.

u can push over 20 psi one stock sleeves without even a block guard? Hell no.

If it was that easy, why are ppl still making a big deal out of making 300 on d-series engines?
