The chevy has 100 runs without pulling the motor apart the pontiac couldnt go 20.As far as me saying I made the wrong decision that will never happen.I spent well over a 100k in engine development over 6 years on the pontiac stuff out of my own pocket.With the chevy it gets split between 3 motors to some extent.My new car has already been sold at the end of the season so I can move up to extreme street.

Thumbs up Bruce. I know when you won the championship you had to use parts that couldn't pull the hp that the latter heads
and intake can pull and were finally approved after you made the switch. I know the expense ya had. People don't know the gimmies that the Pontiac upper class of racers get for free now. You did the R& D so that
B.E.S. can make those Pontiacs produce.
BTW: Where's my intake. LOL.
