John and Steven have managed to squeeze 725 horsepower out of commonly available hardware. Based on a B18C engine block, the engine uses "solid deck" cylinder sleeves – the engine is completely oil cooled. While solid cylinder sleeves would allow outrageous bore diameters out to 90-millimeters and beyond, this would take custom pistons. John and Steven went ahead and stuck with an 84.0-millimeter bore, allowing them to use forged pistons for Honda's 2.0L engines. Speedtrixs camshafts and lifters reciprocate the valve train, which was supplied by Racing Engine Valves (REV). Camshaft tuning is handled with off-the-shelf STR cam gears. A Gen VII Accel DFI unit controls air and fuel, and since feeding 725 hungry horses would require 1,200 cc/min fuel injectors (the stock injectors are 240 cc/min), John and Steven opted for a staged-injection setup. Four "small" 850 cc/min injectors provide precise fuel control at lower boost levels, and when things get hot, four more 850 cc/min injectors kick in and dump needed fuel into the cylinders.
