I believe Jim Laroy has made north of 700HP without squish or quench. Not only that, but millions upon millions of engines came right out of Detroit without either and some were pretty dang hot. The 440 Six Pack Engine was but one of many examples. I'm not saying quench doesn't have benefits. I even have a quench built slant six on the stand. It's not the end all be all for making power, though and you shouldn't come across like it is. Maybe you should try helping people use what they actually have instead. Just a friendly suggestion.
