I'll have a real fun time cooling this engine once I put it in a car. Especially without making the entire front look like a screen door.

im not the best at reading these graphs and it looks like a great engine, but if im correct all of the power on this engine is delivered in 1000rpm range between 3500-4600ish wich could make it kinda hard to drive(alot of gear shifting) i could be totally wrong :D great engine tho!

I've bored/stroked it out to a 5.3L and done some "light" tuning.

That efficiency and service costs certainly aren't going to be for those who have deep pockets, but endless pits of pockets!
