![]() this seems to be a good thread worth talking about here. I follow the NMRA Pure Street class pretty close,and what I find so great about the class is these guys are running high 10's with a max 310 cubes,.500 max lift cams,either a long runner fuelie intake,or a dual plane carb intake and are busting off 380-400rwhp,,granted they are also running a cage,dedicated suspension,aftermarket electronics,and what not(what is a "what not?")
Let me see a engine trying to sell or push a particular product? Would that be like a Marine saying we are better than the Army? Bad comparison there sorry Army guys,but it is all a matter of taste. I will say this and I heard it from one of the engine builders mentioned that a certain head porter well 2 certain head porters in the southeast are selling bogus equipment with flow numbers that are no where near what they advertise,and the part that really burns my *** about it,I have no way to take a head to a flow-bench to see if it is legit if I buy a set of heads from either of those 2 which I won't,and I am sure some of us here do not have that access,notice I said some,some of you all may have access to everything but a lot of us don't,so I have to take their word for it. Moral of the story is and I have been racking my brain for a year and half with this is try to match your combo up as best you can,do not set your goals too high,that way less disappointment,and test,test,test I know everyone has heard this one"you do not race dynos and flow benches" you race cars
