happy to run your stats 750hp, look on the left on one of the old charts for the info I need
http://www.cobralads.com/desktopdyno/jim.gif

bore
stroke
heads - if common ones cool, if rare, need flow rates and valve sizes
compression
carb size
manifold - signle. dual, tunnel ram, efi
blower any of these or these models or give me these numbers
exhaust - small or large headers - mufflers or straight pipe
camshaft - as much info as you can give and include company and part # if possible

and Yes, nascar engines and sprint car engines are two different beasts. Sprint cars are on a short oval tracka and they need torque to accelerate off the corners. Nascar engines run in a vey narrow band...I think I read it was 300rpm. Because they are running full out most of the time on giant ovals, acceleration out of the corners is not that important since their speed is much more constant.
