That's just the way David is. He's still young. You gotta ignore that stuff in his threads he actually has some good advice at times. People have been giving him **** about his money in the year that I have been here and I doubt he will ever change.

RE: New motor update
You guys really need to back off the 25k part. This isnt drag racing. Road racing you need an engine that can make XXX HP for hours at a time. I'm sure there is probably specific classes that you have to adhere to.... on what and what you can NOT do, which really drives the price up to make a higher HP as well.
Don't bitch about what you dont know. I guess all those nascar teams are stupid for spending 100's of thousdsands on their engines. When I could build one with more power for 15k.

RE: New motor update
Well great thread. It seems sort of contradictory though to post a thread about an "update" when all you are telling us is your hp, and how much you spent. If you're so worried about secrecy and people copying you, then don't post an "update." It's pretty simple.
You don't have to reveal every little thing, but a little bit of information would be cool, instead of someone asking you for a couple specs, and you saying: "I'm afraid I cannot do that."
P.S. In case you haven't noticed, there aren't that many people here who are going to be interested in a 400hp motor for $25k anyways... Even if it was necessary for your autox[&:].
Walga- how many times are you going to edit your post?
