DMC Houston HiPo engine

[fjk143@xxxx]

Gentlemen and Ladies,
Well, I have owned a DMC Houston Stage I engine for about a week now...Houston did everything they could to 6894 over the last year or so. It should be clear what the engine is like after review of the curves if you know what the curves mean. It is unrealistic to think those curves will give you a Porsche turbo, a Viper, a Corvette, the hottest off the line, the highest top speed or the best quarter mile times. What you will likely have is the car John DeLorean had in mind 25 years ago, especially when lowered three inches. It is fun to drive now, stable and pulls like a tractor to redline in all the gears. It sounds great if you like engine sounds which is the reason I usually put Tri Flow and Tubi exhausts on my cars. You may not like that sound and that is certainly your perogative. I would say mine sounds like a 427 side oiler with side pipes. When it was delivered by Passport Transport the driver could not wait to get my car off to listen to it. That was in comparison to some pretty respectable
other vehicles including a 600 bhp supercharged big block from Lingenfelter.

DMC Houston has taken, in the case of 6894, a 20 year old car and transformed it into a somewhat modern sportscar with pretty good performance and more soul - definitely more fun to drive. 

It was not cheap but it was worth every cent to me and I would be first in line in the Stage III mods whenever they materialize.

Sincerely,

fjk 6894
