Default Did you see the latest Popular Hot Rodding?

It is a magazine here in the U.S.

Recently they sponsored an "Engine Masters" small block engine building challenge - who could build the best "street" small block that delivers the best average power between 2,500 and 6,000 RPM.

Well, many builders made well over 550 HP with a max of 366 ci.
Most used commonly available mail order-type parts accessible to everyone.

The winner made just over 600hp with no "power adders".

My point is that 10-15 years ago, this would be in NASCAR engine territory.
