    No problem, i'll run you off the bottle if you want. If I dont' get the 4.11's in by then it will be only in the 1/8th mile. The 4.56's won't pull through the 1/4. :D But if I run you off the bottle, you gotta run me on the juice once!! Run what ya brung!!!! Just be aware, I suspect it will be running 6.9?'s on the motor in the 1/8th if I can get it to hook!!:D Everyone's seen the video of my car, everyone knows how fast it is.....I have nothing to hide!! ;) :D

    PS. I was just kidding about the Victor heads, they are a race only head.....kinda like the AFR 225's

    well i don't know to tell you the truth ran a few cars on the streets that run 11.40s to 11.60s at the track, and taking off easy went by them before i got into 3rd and pulled about 4 cars on them before we got to the end of the 1/4 so i don't know what it runs if i can take off hard or at least 2000 rpm not have to feather it off the line

    Let's see, you've got about 46 cubic inches more than me so I guess that means you're gonna spot me about .46 seconds out of the hole to make it fair right??:D ;)
