[alfa] Peters comments



Peter I think you may need to calibrate your dyno. To achive 200 hp from a 2lt
you need 48mm carbs very high comp ratios and very hot cams. And you will need
to take the thing past 8000rpm. Benica have been building engines for years
and the figures you are quoting are not unobtainable however they are not
realistic. Everyone likes to assume you have more power then whats actually
going on.
The twin spark can produce over 200hp but again they are very highly tuned.
And yes Benica's 2lt turbo produces 700hp but im not talking about turbo
charging. Do some research on auto delta engines or send the post some dyno
print outs.
