Just spend the next few days using the search option and pick it for info. I'm sure any questions you'll have will have already been answered at this point.

it burns gas and the roar comes from a monster tucked into the engine...it might bite when you do your internals so be sure to have the FRPP tranq shot so it's easyer to deal with.

I've read as much as +30rwhp, but didn't do a dyno before-and-after w/ mine so all I had was seat-of-the-pants testing...

if u really want to explain the engine .... look at it and say it has aluminum block and 3 valves per cylender it throws a nice 300 hp and 320 torque. say that it doesnt need anything more as modification because for did a really good job on many parts of the motor. tell them u only need a batter cai and a tune for better breathing and this stuff...
