A hybrid motor? No telling what the quarter time on that would be without running it.

K20 Heads with a K24 bottom end right? That's a hybrid.

I wasn't clear on your post. If he's running that hybrid motor then yes he should be faster than that.

Did you see that on Pass Time? I saw that. Not sure if he was telling the truth about the K24 bottom, but he was slow. Not a good launch. I believe it was hot there so I would guess that the time should be low 14's or high 13's.

Hybrid has many meanings. The definition of a hybrid is 1: an offspring of two things of different races, breeds, varieties, species, or genera.

Therefore, taking one race, the K20 and the other race being the K24 and combining them to make a new one. Some call the mixing of the two a frankenstein motor. Others call it a hybrid. Yes, the combination is to make more torque.
