But they paint them black to try to make it look like carbon fiber. Pitty is carbon fiber has more of a gray look to it.

I do KNOW this for sure...I've been IN the car (he won't let me drive it, I've asked.) HAHA. But yes I am sticking to it...how can someone thousands of miles away from the car...and has only seen a bad photo of it on the internet, judge how powerful or not a drag car is? It's so funny how he won't give up.

POLL: Hey guys...which hood do you like better...the one on this pic or now (#1401)?

It's fiberglass from Howell Automotive.

It does resemble one though, doesn't it? Hmmm.

no Chevy ripped it off from the AAR Cuda, I'm pretty sure that's what this guy is trying to be! I guess he figured the T/A hood that goes with those strips would look retarded on a Neon

Because I know that physically, 2L is not enough displacement to pump 350HP without some form of forced induction. With a vornado fan blowing ice cold oxygen at the intake manifold, a 2.0L engine CANNOT naturally take in the air volume required to make 350HP - and you'd have to compress it at close to 18:1. You say this motor is an NA 2.0 with 350, but thermodynamics, my friend, says otherwise.

I'll throw my $.02 in. 350hp out of a naturally aspirated 2.0L is difficult. It is possible, it just depends on how extreme you want to get. If he was running on alcohol, with about 9k RPM, it would be easy. However, you say he drives it on the street, which leads me to think it's running on 93 octane gas with probably some octane additive or maybe even split 50/50 with 110 octane race gas. Based on the 50/50 gas, with 102 octane to work with, it's entirely possible to run 12.5:1 or maybe 13:1, depending on the size and shape of the combustion chambers. In combination with a good RPM-designed rebuild, it should be possible. It would only make those power in the high RPM range, well above 8000, but in theory it's possible to build a gas powered engine that can run at 12k or higher RPM, making 350+ hp possible. Like I said, difficult, but possibly doable.

it's all in the RPMs with the smaller motors.

So how far can you go on say a 351 pushrod NA V8. Just out of interest.

Wow...almost 100 posts ALREADY. HAHA...most are excerpts from Ginsu's book on effectively dragging out an argument in an attempt to be a "know it all".
