Are you allergic to POWER and SMOOTHNESS?



Also guys, remember that the Dutweiller motor was running with a relatively small t. body (SVT) and I think butterflies in the smaller bore LIM... With some more upgrades & changes I think 500+ HP possible..
yeah 220Hp and 240Tq on a four banger.

I think some of the important notes are reflected in the LACK of modifications to the block speaks VERY VERY highly of the Duratech engine. Most stock blocks simply will NOT handle a 264% increase in power with only a rod/piston change. I think that speaks for itself.
