Sure you could, but why...there, I said it for those who inevitably will.
In looking at the various engines, it seems like this:
for a given displacement, lower compression for lower Octane costs 10 HP
Injected over Carb gives you 10 HP
Extra displacement (360 to 375 or IO390 vs IO360) seems to net you 10 HP.
With the possibility of 180 HP limit/medical thing going, what do you think about the viability of this:
Higher displacement injected engine with lower compression for 180 HP on lower octane (maybe auto fuel)? Might be more $ than it's worth, just wondering what the brain trust thinks?
