Main cap girdles re-discussed

11,000hp top fuel hemi engines are marginal at best?
Reading you loud and clear.
Your opinion is noted. Thank you for sharing.

You’re shutting me right? You think that a fuel engine doesn’t have valve train issues?

They sure do. They do the best with what they have. NHRA has a rules package that won’t let them move enough **** around to fix it. Or at least make it more tolerable.

And that means you think guys like Matt Bieneman and Steve Morris are stupid because they have addressed the issue. Thats the height of arrogance.

You opinions have been duly noted and thrown in the dumper as uneducated nonsense.

BTW, just to show you even in a class like Pro Stock **** isn’t what you think it is.

So here is a TRUTH.

In 1996 at the Seattle Nationals I was privileged to be allowed past the rope in the Johnson and Johnson Pro Stock pits. I couldn’t take any pictures but I could look at anything I wanted.

At that time, they were qualifying 15-16 at best and May times they were in the low 20’s depending on how many cars there.

Roy Johnson was leaking the engine down and 3 and 5 were at 15%. That’s horrible for anything. For a Pro Stock engine that’s junk.

So I asked why it was so bad. He said “do you see that head stud right there?” I said yes and he said “its in the wrong spot!”

Being the dumb *** I am I said why don’t you move it?

He said “because Chrysler won’t redo the head so we can move it”.

So there you go. The ONE Chrysler Pro Stocker out there was sucking hind tit because Chrysler wouldn’t do the work to change the casting, change the gasket and get NHRA to approve it.

What you don’t know exposes your folly. You can babble on like a fool but anyone paying attention can see you don’t have a clue.

Take a hike.
