I heard something about his health too, not sure I buy it, the walls were closing in on him. He did close the biz, at least under the previous name. Heard someone was going to buy the biz, not sure about that either.
Jim is still on FB posting, and he still owes me an engine. But I'm not going there on this forum....
No doubt P350s can run decent, have seen a number of them that do, and have done one myself. Same stroke as a 400 just a smaller bore. There's been builds that were testing limits, and some of those were supposedly making pretty big numbers, comparable to larger engines. Thing is, it costs as much if not more than doing a similar 400 or 455.
Here's one that's not 'big' power but still a contender:

Ken's 462HP 350 build:

And this one, 672HP:

But not sure I buy it all, no real 'data'.
