Hmmmmm.... My Honda VTX motorcycle, 110 ci (55 ci/cyl) comes close to my
320 (80 ci/cyl). It uses a 9:1 compression ratio, 4" bore x 4.4"
stroke, 3 valves, 3d mapped fuel injection (MAP, OAT, RPM, etc.) thru
12-hole electronic injectors, 2 plugs/cyl, EI, liquid cooled (uh, well that's
quite different), etc. This engine produces 95 HP and 115 ft/lb at the
rear wheel thru a less than efficient a drive shaft at about 4500-5000
rpm. It requires 86 octane auto gas.
No detonation, AND it moves my fat arse and lots of chrome (1000 lbs gross)
with impressive haste.
Scott, some more toys to consider. You
need to get gown to the Cadillac dealer. Take a look at the new XLR-V. 4.4
liter, 443 hp. Corvette in Cadillac skins. Retractable hard
top. Now if you are into a sport sedan, look at the STS-V, same engine at
469 hp.
