Even the 4.6 guys and LSI streeters I have seen come no where near 2000 street HP, sure if you run alcohol and a huge nitrous kit you could produce that much power but what kind of drivetrain are you going to use? And I hardly consider alcohol and nitrous oxide street fuel, at least at any gas station I go to. To say you have 2000 streetable HP is more like saying I have a drag car with license plates. As I said 4 HP per cubic inch would seem a little far fetched on a old school V8 on the street running gasoline, yes top fuel cars produce 8000 HP but that does not mean a street driven car made in 1964 can produce 2000 and run on pump gas. It would seem I keep being taken out of context as I do not dispute engines can produce 4 or more HP per cubic inch but it would be at the cost of crossing the line between a street driven car to a strictly race vehicle. This has been my argument with the logic at hand all along, not the maximum potential of any engine as that is not even a relevant subject here. No one here is building ultra modern fast and furious cars running four turbos and talking about it, this site is for a certain engine series built by Ford and that is what I am making reference to. Can a SOHC produce more than 1200 HP? Sure it can, on the street with 91 octane? Doubt it.
