“It sounds like a pissed off bumblebee. 560 horsepower at 9,200 rpm is the peak number, and it’s still making good power at 10,600 rpm. I’m pulling the stick at 10,500 rpm,”

Wow! Just wow! I rev mine to 6k and it sounds sweet. Oddly enough, he doesn't talk about the cams, valvetrain or VVT, which are the truly unique parts of this engine.

Funnily enough, there is a DMPE shop in the town I work in. The article is from a year ago, but he may still be going there for testing. I sent them a note, so we'll see if they respond.

Page 1 of this publication from Lane Automotive (speed supply shop near me) talks about the early efforts with the engine.

Here is a vid of a hot rodded 4.2 (not the one in question) that sounds pretty sweet in the second half of the vid.
