One of the fun things about Dwight was that he had NOS 428 and 427 blocks (supposedly the 427 blocks were unused NASCAR blocks that were left over after they changed the rules) stacked around like cord wood. Lots of other NOS parts too - one of the reasons I couldn't resist going with a more original build despite weight and other "disadvantages". Funny, regardless of the HP I am actually making, I don't feel underpowered.
