"If you stand it straight up and look at it from the side. "
It will look like a connecting rod standing straight up that you are looking at it from the side. Thats what it will look like. It wont look like a toothbrush or a apple.
Even if you say it looks like a tooth brush and shake your head yes.

I have not heard of any blown motors on this forum after a year and a half of reading. Only theoriesthat 450 or 500+ rwhpwill do it, which makes perfect sense to me. I would not go past450 flywheel hp to be safe. Plenty of people have done that on this forum and so far have been OK for many thousands ofmiles.

Pretty amazing HP for such a tiny little engine.

Pretty big tooth brush
Granted, this stock 4.6 rod should not have 450 RWHP.

Nice pic. That's pretty freakin thin. I wonder how many cents Ford saved on those?
