Sizzler,

Yes -- I thought it might be interesting to see some numbers from Mike as compared to some of the other engine builders. Mike impressed me as a straight shooter, and since the engine build components were pretty typical of aluminum 427s, the data might give a prospective engine buyer some insight into what to expect. Also, since Mike had predicted lower numbers and already had me as a customer, I don't think he would be motivated to juice the numbers to meet an overly optimistic sales pitch -- that's just not the way Mike works. In other words, the data is objective.

By the way, I drove the car a bunch this weekend, and it truly defines the difference between fun fast and scary fast. I love it, in a horrified, change your shorts when you get home sort of way.
