He went from every 2 hours in the EV thread to silence for at least a week from what I see. Everything ok?

I was thinking the same thing. Hopefully he's just still typing up replies to the locked thread.

I just PM'd him. Let's see. Frenchy is well-loved here. And we all love his commentary.

He just posted on the GRM forum 25 minutes ago.  Sounds like he's been busy but is doing OK.  That's good to know.

Proof that we can give a member merciless E36 M3 and still care about them.

I PM'd him yesterday evening. He responded to me and posted his message on the GRM forum, same as what he said to me. Yes, all is well with Frenchy.

Good to hear. Just because we don't necessarily follow his logic or we get frustrated by his debate tactics doesn't mean we wish the guy any ill will.

I'm sure he just hasn't found a topic he's the only expert on lately since his last was closed down.

That is the definition of friendship, isn't it?

We could always start a Jag V12 hp vs SBC hp debate thread.

In reply to Stampie :

It needs to be something like Jag 12 vs something like a Ford 3.7 V6 and which one can take the most boost. 

They say the 3.7 spits the crank at 600+ hp with stock internals. I wonder how much the V12 will take.

In reply to Toyman! :

I know the 1.6t gamma will see 300hp a time or two before it vents the block. Forged internals get you over that hump reliably. So jag v12 power from 1.6L of Korean turbo fury.
