1000 H.P IS too somthing.What about a naturally aspirated engine making oh..lets say 800+ hp? What you call powerful is something with 13 hairdryer turdblows on it. THIS 14. to 1 comp alum rodded AMC 401 cranks 800+ hp all motor and propels this 1974 Gremlin to 9.30's in the q mile.

And thats when you bring in the 600+ CI engines that make that power.

But of course you have to order your gas for things like that.
