Impromptu Dyno day at Northeast Racing HQ... While the results have to be top secret due to the nature of "class" racing, the car performed as well as we would have expected. Either way, it was a great time with a full house of our friends! @TOOLOW91 @93TRANSAM

Sometimes it's like a car show here too, and I could designate chairs for your and @Davedacarpainter to enjoy adult beverages from. That give me an idea... Since we can't seem to land our own reality series perhaps we will just install grand stands to spectate from

i know the set of highports i have have some cracks in the water jackets on the outside of the head that open up under a LOT of boost. and no one wanted to touch them to repair them. thats how they ended up on my new motor with a bottle.
a lot of guys wont touch that type of head after they start cracking.

Is it going to be any better with spray going through them? That would really scare me. I had a set of Roush heads (RHS) that had hairline cracks near the valve guides. They assured me they were fine, but I returned them anyway.
