lol he deserves it. and those numbers are ridiculous. do they actually think they are professionals? kenne bell made 774rwhp on a terminator cobra with only a supercharger at 26psi and a catback exhaust, along with supporting mods for the s/c.

idk its sad either way...
i pointed out that gary made 660rwhp with ONLY 17.4psi with only a mix of race gas.. and not even a final tune...

randomly after he lost his highest hp V6 title he hit 667rwhp...

either way its almost double the boost...

No i dont need one printed....my 439rwhp on a stock bottom end is plenty impressive for a self done top end with a little regrind cam

i dont think your coulda hit 439rwhp at 12psi as it sat anyway

so now let me ask how's that feel?
your fully built 4.2 some nascar ported heads some crazy cam you probably have with probably .40 more lift then mine or more, custom intake
lost to a 19yr olds SELF ported heads and stock ported intakes with a regrind cam....

man..so what will happen when i re-dyno on my built motor?


also you never said WHY you let those shitty heads touch a $7+k motor..?
or is that the norm for DELK?

Never done any business with them luckly, but as far as being a bunch of idiots that goes for about 90% of the state or atleast the area im in anyways lol. Id probably save tons of money going to them for a tune vs hauling the car to AL or FL with my gas guzzler but theres no way in hell youd catch me doing that. Out of everything ive read/seen/heard about them I think ive only seen one good thing and it was on some local rice rocket forum.

yeap no need to answer you. cause i have nothing to prove to you at all.

and trust me i made good power on my stock valved self ported heads. but you would not know about that cause you still have your head stuck up your butt.


also just a example. i know someone with a Built 347(not a delk customer) whats that gonna make lets say 450flywheel right? then had a 400 shot. car had a loose converter and a C4 it put down 380rwhp on the spray. but ran 6.15@117mph in the 1/8th.

oh boy, 4.2 gone wrong - V6Power Messageboard

looks like someone forgot to check his PV,coil bind or something simple. man i bet he just slaped that engine together without knowing what he was doing. cleary a hurt spark plug didn't cause that damage.
