    Jethro....I have a dream....can you say LS7! 505 HP Do ya think Allen could squeeze another 30 to 40 out of it. And not to be a mopar basher ,but from what Ive seen,they loose about 75 to 100 hp to driveline loss.Maybe the 345 rating is a little inflated.Briggs and Stratton sells 20 hp v-twins to MTD and they can legally put a 22 or 23 hp decal on that engine. Tractor supply is a good example...the hp rating on TSC tractors are bumped by 1-2 hp by decals alone sorry for the long story.....pisses me off!
