    spark plug blow out

    X303 and the E303 cam what do you think?

    I have been running the X cam for 5 years and it's pretty wild. No it won't pass emmisions, yes the valves will hit the pistons, yes you need big valve springs if you want to rev to the 6300 max hp rpm, don't bother without good heads.
