There was an article in MM&FF about how they could see on video a naturally aspirated stock block starting to twist at around 450 hp. It can be done, but it won't last long enough to prove it too many times.

It also sounds nothing like a turbo. Unless you have never heard a turbo

Heard guys doing it but they are drag motors that have been poured and girdled all up. Id just buy a dart block and be done with it though instead of wasting time and money doing that.

Boost is staying right where it is. I may adjust the timing just a hair to make a little more power but that's about it.
