Even if he doesn't hold onto his old Eheads he can always order another pair from Butler for around 3k. I believe JB has them in stock. Not a bad deal.....3k for a three second head.

I'm not his banker, but he runs standard pushrod location Edelbrock heads and that's the going rate.

Let's see how they do against the rest of the world.

Point being IS when you are starting off with a head thats out of the box 330 cfm it would cost less to get it to 350 cfm as oppose to a head thats is 280 cfm out of the box.........HENSE the HP would be the BETTER choice for "Bang for your BUCK"!
.........and just for sh_ts & giggles how many of those 3.90's has Chief run? Wasn't it with his PRO MOD Firebird (you know the one he ran at INDY in PRO MOD)?

I DO have the money and I've been to Cordova but I'm done for this year............come to Norwalk, I have my engine out to put new main bearings in it BUT it looks like they are fine, these are the same main bearing I had in it when I broke the snout off my crank (after 10 years of beating it up with a blower) looks like the bearings are staying in! When I kick your cars A$$ in i won't take your money.....it not fair and I don't need it! Besides the race will never happen your car won't pass tech! Right now I'm getting ready to go on vacation!

He did qualify 31out of 33 cars in attempt to get in a 16 car field and killed it with a best .170 reaction time!!!!!!!!!

This past weekend in STL the #16 bump was a 5.804 in Pro Mod.

Heck the Top Dragster Field this past weekend in STL it took a 6.381 to get that #32 spot!!!!
Any Pontiac powered dragsters besides Jeff K able to qualify for that?

Top Sportsman well.....GTOGEORGE you could've qualified for that but would have had to dial at least a 7.99....which everyone that reads this sight knows it's in your car!

Chief has gone faster in Marty Palbykin's car than ANY car he has raced.
The car Chief is running right now. 69goat1, that body shell came out of the southwest.
