I am getting excited right now and it is 40 miles away at the moment. Feels like it did in high school.
No other engine even gets my blood going, except that cammer I saw last month.
$30/hp but worth every penny to me.

$30/HP sounds too cheap to me, unless you making at least 800 HP, which is entirely possible. The Bill Coon heads are $5K and the Pond block is another $5K. Plus all those little expensive parts. I think you would be closer $40/HP.
This definitely sounds like my engine building methodology.
Yes, there's a small probability for a Cammer in my future. Of course, that $/HP ratio thingee would be out the window.
