Grossi and the Big Block

Getting creative with new combinations isn't the problem. The problem is the inadequate factoring methods used to rate these combos.

Any competent engine designer/builder can calculate within 1-2% how much power an engine can make with the data we have.

Why then is it such a suprize how fast these combos can go? Grossi's big block, Wigle's 460, the LS1. All under-factored from the start.

Lets get into the 21st century and factor these engines correctly in the first place, then let the best man win.
....and put the poor over-factored 300 motor back where it belongs.
