That's funny Dan Smith runs mid 9's with the **** most guys will throw away like stock cast iron heads and a stock factory block with just a flat tappet cam. **** you could probably build 2 for the prices these guys will pay for 1 that will do that. The fact that its done 2600 passes without breaking says EVERYTHING about its reliability. **** he's even doing it with Eddie heads. He's obviously figured out how to make a lot of power with parts people consider junk and that's gonna piss off those that need exotic and expensive parts to do it.
