    (Fixed it), Just look how great my small block ford did last year........oh wait it blew up. Your friend Eddie.
    Well for an example, run your engine to 9,000RPM for 5 days of racing and let me know how it holds up, probably would not get a pass or two outta it! Luke KNOWS what he did to his engine, he over revved it for the week, and got just what I would of expected him to get, a dropped intake valve, and I TOLD him what would happen if it was over revved! The engine has a somewhat agressive hyd. roller in it, and a 2.250, heavy steel intake valve, I told him 6900rpm was it, who knows what kinda RPM he was screaming it to, but enough that Brian announced one time, "listen to that thing, he's got it wound up like an 8 day clock"!

          No one I know would ever spin their junk to anything over 8500 rpm on a regular basis. I think my stall converter is 6900 Eddie.

                No, but it seems like if you go to OKC you "could" have the fastest street car in the country, if not the WORLD!!

                    I know about lighter, Luke's engine was not an exotic build, by any means, we are gonna lighten up the intake side of things this time on his engine.. My junk has over 6.5" long 2.450 titanium intake valve with a 5/16' stem, I understand lighter.. ;-)

                                5/16 is a ton of weight, 6 MM is light Eddie. I know that valve Jake LOL it looks very longggggggg

                                I am betting they flow more than Eddie's too LOL or very close to it.
