Have you run both engines and are basing this on experience or is this just your 2 cents??? I've read throught this whole thread and this mill sounds great, the only 'problem' I see is all discussions talk about it in it's modded form. I have no doubt that a modded engine will outperform a stocker, why else would you get it modded....!?!?!?!?!?

Maximo, how bout doing a budget engine shootout, box stock on all, with dyno info, video, and your reaction to how they felt. I'd love to have my Werks B5, the JL21, the new JS racing mill, the ODss21, the Alpha all broken in and paired w/ their optimal pipe and do real world back to back track testing.

The Werks B5 does have alot of buzz because of Ron's support coupled w/ its price and performance in BOX STOCK FORM. Jeremy Kortz consistently places in the pro Amain w/ the likes of Drake, Mayfield etc. with the same exact engine I or anyone else can run.
