[Wrambler <wrambler242@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Doesn't look like to much power, looks more like not enough block....

Is there anything such as to much power???

Super stock tractor with about 4 times more rpm and 5 times more boost than it

underneath. Note some of the piston pins part way out and one piston gone
altogether.
