Since I don't have a bolt stretch gauge i'm going to assemble it all tomorrow and torque the rod bolts when I get one. Rod commented he hopes i'm not putting a 1500hp capable rotating assembly in a stock block 
He said these parts won't even sneeze at 1000rwhp in a boss block. Which is exactly what I like to hear. |
What sort of piston forgings do you have to withstand 1000hp FI?

I wish I didn't have so many things to fix on the Cobra, I'd love to get a MM torque arm. How'd you get it for $300?

Posted up a WTB thread over on c-c. Had two people offering them to me for that price, standard duty and the race duty one that I bought. I already have the springs for it, just need subframes.
The race duty one has the same rating as the standard duty arm, so I'm going to pull the HD arm off the track car and switch them. I don't need the gray car to handle a full on 7k clutch dump, but the blue car will.

If the valve wasn't in the head I'd say it was caused by a bent valve but the valve looks straight in the picture.

i would rather have a bent valve, the valve forced the seat sideways into the bowl over and over. not good.

Now that you say that I can see that in the picture. I couldn't see that the seat was in there crooked. Will you be able to save the head or is it done?
