Good luck with your 350 project.

You might be just a little bit low on your estimation on what the heads/headwork cost for some like Fulton and Lil Jack.

When you are in Jack's position, moving to a bunch of new 7 second times vs Dick's position where (according to some) he has been in the 7s for a good long while now with other heads, except for the trash talking what is Lil Jack really gaining from the deal?
A lot of new experience in a 7 second vehicle.

In Fulton's case, having been there for a good while in the 7s, what is Fulton really gaining/proving by this deal? Makes you wonder sometimes.

Kind of like the Tom Nell/Herb Adams guys showing up (for one race) at Lime Rock and doing ok (until the Pontiac engine had issues) vs the Ford and Chevy Guys battling it out for the Trans Am Championship for many races with one of them naturally taking the crown.
