I was just reading over http://www.vclassics.com/hiperf1.htm and noticed this statement:

"I have dreamed for years of putting an 1800 on the street with similar performance characteristics. (Unfortunately, there is no way to get 200 HP out of a normally-aspirated B20 on street gas -- the race car runs at least 108 octane leaded racing gas with a CR of over 13.5:1. It gets between four and five miles per gallon.)"

Has the MPPE been dyno tested yet? How much power does it make and how is it running? Is it a good street motor?



-John,
I was wondering what size tires and wheels do you use on your street and/or race cars, what offsets? Also, in the archives i see that you were wanting to do a Jap DOHC swap, what engine were you specifically looking at? Just wondering, thanks
