Can't wait. Hopefully they sell a complete kit with forged pistons and stronger rods.

I'll be waiting for more info...[sm=popcorn.gif][sm=popcorn.gif][sm=popcorn.gif][sm=popcorn.gif][sm=popcorn.gif]

Wasn't it Mario Andretti who said "There's no replacement for displacement"? I think Smokey Yunick's version was "You can't beat cubic inches". I like their choice of displacement numbers - classic.
