This point is lost on most amateurs when it comes to building engines.
The top end of the engine is built to produce power, and the bottom end of the engine is built to absorb that power.
The bottom ends of the high HP engines are designed by engineers to take that power.
Headers - $750
Supercharger - $5,000
Tires to put the power to the ground - $1,500
Your block after you put a rod through it - Worthless.
For everything after that, there is Mastercard.
