Wasn't there a rumor a few years ago that NHRA bought faro arm to check heads?

That's why I stopped racing NHRA back in the 90's. I was racing in C/SA with my 428 Mustang and was about .3 and 3 MPH from the quickest 428's. I was told to be competitive I needed acid ported heads and intake. Cost was $5000 for heads and $3000 for intake back then.
