    Motors done 327 SBC - I think it made around 420HP and 380-390trq. I'll have to look at the dyno sheet. Build sheet (yes I took out the name for now) first time using this builder. Everything look good? A tad out of my league with those numbers.

    Pratt & Whitney Wasp

    I want this! They also made a V8 version. Would love to get my hands on either. They were made by Renwal in the 60's. You can find them on eBay for about $150 for the V8 and about $350 for radial engine. They don't make stuff like this anymore.
