TTQ B4U Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 Very nice. Now you just need to get Andy over there to clean the beast up and post back some nice pics. I know someone that would take them for you :gabe: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DTM Brian Posted July 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 Good tune obviously. That and good head gaskets and head bolts. Heads went on this car back in 1997 and have never been off. Just took a customer for a ride at 18 pounds. I do not see myself going back to 10-11 psi anytime soon. . When the motor pops a good one will be going in its place.

Buckeye1647545503 Posted August 1, 2011 Report Share Posted August 1, 2011 Shanton all those do is keep the broken parts together Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTM Brian Posted August 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2011 no crank girldle?.. No. I think the what is keeping this motor together is keeping the revs below 6000 rpms. I have seen 400 hp motors break the blocks when spinning to 7000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
