  • Li Tuning & Racing in Largo Florida, along with Sparks n' Shorts, completely rebuilds Sketchy Vert making the car movable on its own power again, and their work is so clean! Sketchy hits the Dyno with Sai from Li Tuning & Racing.

    Displacement is always better. Running a 380 is worse than 427 you just have less power from the beginning. There’s thousand of 427s that live in the 8k+rpm. I’ve seen 427 make 1000 whp on 11-13psi

      Did you notice mph was only 122? Should be 165. 388cu in make huge power. Less flex in the crankshaft because of the shorter stroke. Lot of 388s make 2000 hp. but 1200 rwh is enough for street. Very nice combination
