Because of that fact I have always wanted to show the PI swapped guys that you can put down great power out of the non-PI motors in the same circumstances. What I mean is that a non-PI motor that has 10.5:1 compression, ported non-PI heads, aftermarket cams (I am running SHM 2730's) and either the PI intake or SVO Intake (which I just got a great deal on) will make just about the same power as a PI swapped car. As soon as the buildup is finished for my car I will make sure that I post numbers for everyone. The goal is 300+ N/A on a little non-PI setup that isn't going to cost a fortune. The shortblock is going to be still using hypereuthetic pistons & rods just not from a stang to give me the compression that I need, stock GT crank & block, P&P'd headwork done by me, the same 2730's that I am running now (only 500 lift), and a ported SVO intake with the normal bolt-ons. If you don't think it is possible take a look at my sig and see where I am at right now with a tired old stock longblock with a PI intake & SHM 2730 cams. JMHO!</p></blockquote><p></p>
