    The video is OK but the thought of a lens that can take that kind of heat and pressure is pretty amazing.

    I will admit, I was impressed by the camera. But the second video was WIN!

    It really shows what you are up against when modifying cars and how important it is to upgrade your valve springs when installing a big cam or building a car for high RPM, AND put those steel washers in that they seat on, otherwise the valve spring would start cutting into your cylinder head!
    (Video is not in real time)

    This video is cool, noise is annoying (dont flame me for saying it sounds annoying, I <3 V8's) But the video shows how important the right valve springs are.

    A V8 is the only real motor and the best three that were ever built were the GM 350 the 351 Windsor and the 351 Cleveland in terms of how much horsepower you can gain by "hotrodding" them. For example the small block 350 has about the best bore to stoke ratio of any production engine ever made (145 hp (108 kW)-370 hp (276 kW)). And while the Windsor and the Cleveland were both respectable competitors to achieve a similar stock bore to stroke ratio with Fords solution one would have to run a "Cleavor". That is a Windsor block with Cleveland heads.
