Not everyone with one is flyin, and the two times it went under a second this year have been at a factored track and in very unusual weather conditions in Houston. It was like 65 degrees with a huge tail wind. Talk about a self serving agenda hidden under the guidlelines of "fixing" the AHFS.

Hey Hagen you must be a friend of Larry's otherwise I don't think you'd be calling him OLD, not sure what you are trying to say 44 less cubes two less barrels and carry 15 more HP, I bet Larry would love to bolt on a set of your heads and intake & carb, and I'll put money down that he gains at least 20 and in some cases 30 more HP and we won't talk about the after market goodies. Gary that sixpak doesn't perform as well as you may think and the 906 heads are a far cry if compared to the heads OEM or even better after market you have to work with, and this is why you only have a handful of people running the sixpack combo.If your comparing apples to apples, DON'T because a 396/375 can and will make more power, and I would guesstimate at least 20 more HP and that's conservative!!!SHOW ME A SIXPAK THAT CAN RUN IN THE 9's??? Last I looked the 396 w/steel head factor was 399 and w/aluminum 405, and Larry's sixpak factor is 405 don't see the difference, now if you want to compare that same combo in a B-body I'm factored @ 417 so stop teasing us! ? ! ? ! ? . . .
