Has any one read the April 2009 issue of Hot Rod? It has an article in it about the Toyota 2JZ-GTE engine and it is installed in a 1967 Camaro. It is Turbo charged and they are talking about the kind of power it is making like 823HP with a completly stock bottom end etc... up to 1500HP. It was a pretty interesting article about these engines. I thought I would share the info with you all. Pick up a copy and read it for those who are interested.

In the same issue I also found the article comparing build cost between a small block Chevy and a small block Ford very interesting. The 383 Chevy seems to be the best bang for the buck. I'm both a Ford and a Chevy fan so I don't consider myself biased. At 500hp the cost was supposedly even but that was with a 2-bolt main 351W vs a 4-bolt 383. Obviously engine longevity was not compared.
