Could be wrong but I don't think the valve spring rule will help the DP hemis. The beehive spring is needed on these engines to clear the underside of the rockers. A regular spring won't fit under them.

What a ****storm over one comment. I said I hope they both get hp, an if they both run all the way to the stripe that's what would happen. You know a good old fashioned drag race.

As for Sean, I've never had anything at all against him, he's a hell of a racer, and I have said as much. He apparently has something against me, although ive neve met him. Hopefully one day i have that opportunity. I will not, however let someone make smartass, douchebag comments and not respond to them My opinion of the cj/dp cars is not to be confused with any personal feelings involved toward anyone racing one of these cars. I consider Jeff Teuton a friend, and think his car is pretty cool. I also understand the struggles he had with his older car. I still think the factor is soft.

Would "picking a better combo" mean picking a better underfactored combo? Seems like that is what is at the top of the qualifying sheets these days. Penciled in hp factor seems to be what it takes to be on top and to hell with the years of hard work,testing,dynoing, etc. In this era the pen is more effective than the dyno.

Don't forget that check book to go with that pen, A winning combo for sure!!!!!!!!! It's the American way these days.

The American Way is to get off your lazy *** and off the key board and go to work and live the American Dream.I took this advise 40 years ago and it sure works!
