from another forum:
chadillac wrote:Thanks for the props. I have to let everyone know how surprising the ABZ engine is. This engine is a junkyard engine with 100k miles on it. Stock aluminum bore (no hone), stock crank, stock heads (absolutely no port work), stock main bearings (because there are non available), stock composite head gaskets, stock oil pump, stock intake plenum, all from the original engine. I am sure I am leaving many factory parts out, but to answer the original question, we are out of fuel injector at around 1250 crank hp. This is the first guinea pig V8 engine, the next will have some more bells and whistles. Stay tuned. Thanks again everyone.
and people wonder why i am going to run RWD now......
plus why i put a V8 in the next project car

That's amazing. And to think... I have one sitting on the side of my house. I really need to use it for something! It'd be so easy to mount a turbo in a boat application
Too bad that crappy sounding bug was in both videos. That thing is fast and sounds quite nice! Doesn't really sound stock the way it revs, but I'll take the guy's word for it. That is very, very impressive! He didn't say stock rods or pistons though.

Damn... I wonder if it has stock rods... it's making 1250chp, assume less torque but even if its 900 ft/lbs @ the crank, that is over 100 ft/lbs per rod...

Damn! That's a pretty little powerhouse! Anybody want to buy a 40V with 56k on the clock? I have no use for this motor.

I believe it was mentioned at one point it had just forged rods/pistons, everything else was stock.
