I’m not sure how this ended up in my suggested videos but I’m glad it did. It’s great seeing the everyday build. Not everyone can afford a 700hp H2B or 2JZ like I’m ATTEMPTING. At the end of the day, WHP is WHP. Who cares what motor you use to get there!

[@DeadOnePower]

That's truth.. and people don't know lots of things, like D serie actually make more Nm by horse power than a B or K series because of sohc (yes, a b series handles more power/kw than a d series (with similiar builds).

[@hatchbackturbo93]

depending on obd1 or 2. biggest distinction is the rod journal size
