2 year bump. The record still stands.

I found this video of Reg Cook being interviewed after getting back to NZ.

We need to get this record back to an American. Any want to build a 300+hp (crank) NA 2.0l?

and you and I need to build a 1.5 VE and set the H/Pro record. Guess who has it...yep, a Honda @ 153.517mph

I think we should do it in your rusty B14.....

This makes me want to find an old Cosworth motor to tinker with.
