Will I be OK?
« on: July 30, 2008, 01:57:07 pm »
For the rest of the season, Im forced to run a 25ci in my IMOW. My 28cid needs a rebuild...witch will only be done in the winter. What im really worried about is coming out of turns. How much do you think it will struggle tryin to keep up with the 28's?

if its a stock engine, you will have a tough time keeping up with the 28 inchers, the 25's give up more hp and torque than one would think!

any aftermarket parts you have will transfer to the 25" except the crank.

This is for IMOW so there governed bone stock motors with the exception of an exhaust. So with this in mind, Do you think id be left in the dust?

Is it capable of winning on the National level...?? No..

Are you going to be lapped and laughed at..? No..

Can you hold a mid pack position ?...most likely if the 25 is in decent condition...
