Hank- Mikes motors make 700 hp each with little failure. Mike also claims the last rod journal is where the failure is most likley to happen. A yearly inspection whouldnt hurt either. My motor makes 575-600hp at the crank with 175 hp nitrous. What kind of power adder are you useing Blower,Turbo,Nitrous?

PS- I think the weak link in a 292 in the block. The long cylinder bores will give out. A 250 with the shorter deck maybe the way to go.
