They'll race division 2 in the 1/8 mile races. I'm sure 99.9 % can pass tech. You won't find any $5000. Heads and intakes on a crate motor car. Their budget racers..

Dan, if you knew anything about the combos that I run, you would know that opening up the heads would slow me down.

I can't imagine why anyone would pull a legal motor out just so they can go run a few 1/8 mile open races and nothing else.

Xx What I was saying is that most crate motor guys won't spend the 5K to Port & Polish head's & intake then cover it up. They'll do the basic legal head work.
