I thought the word was last fall that the head gaskets kept letting loose after a few runs. I think you would have to expect some problems on the first year run of a car like this.

That was with 4 bolt heads. Not sure why they even put them on...
Now with NHRA approved 6 bolt heads= NO PROBLEMS!

The bore and stroke on the 350ci caught my attention! (4.125 bore 3.27 stroke). Sounds like a SS modified motor!

That's what I'm thinking, should be good for 9k+ rpm easily as a stocker!
