I lost an F20C this year. The cylinder walls were absolutely perfect though. F20C failures are caused by totally different circumstances. You can not compare the two. Piston side loads due to the increased stroke will cause an early failure.
I'm now building a high compression 2.2L that has been fully balanced, polished and blueprinted. The motor should be a real gem. However I want it to last for more than one season Even at 8400rpms I think I'd be lucky to get 2 fulls seasons out of it before the cylinder wall look like the grand canyon.
I hate seeing a failure regardless of the cause. This one could be prevented.....The R&C community has already lost a number of motors directly linked to this issue.

I've Dyno'd so many different numbers, at 4 different places. I've really come to believe that dyno numbers don't matter much from one to another. The only thing that matters is the graph comparing the baseline and final after tune. As long as I make plus hp over the base for that dyno day, I'm happy.
Now to answer your question, I dyno'd:
250whp @ Shawn Church - Dynapack
219whp @ Lucky Seven - Inground Jet
217whp @ Skunk2 - Superflow Jet
211whp @ Raceline Development w/ 2 bad wheel bearings - DynoJet
206whp @ Lucky Seven - Inground Jet
All dyno numbers are not in chronological order.

Curious to hear about differences after installation of steering stiffener!
