Just hypothetical musings about max power potential

Conversely I have a buddy with a 5.9 based Dakota that runs low 6s in the 1/8th. That motor has to be producing 700+hp to push that heavy truck through the traps at 110mph. Nothing exotic in his block (no filler or girdle), but it does have nice heads and gets smacked really hard by nitrous and he’s abused that block for years. “500 HP?!!…you’ll shoot your eye out kid!”. Lol
