yep. I had something similar happen "except i didnt get charged luckily". This guy was nuts he was brake burning and revving up at a red light. He bolted all out when the light turned green and cut in front of another car when he got ahead. "I wasnt trying" and i got pulled over cavelier...
You're right its cutting it very close. Moly was used. Looks like ill be getting another set.
In these high torque ranges do you think the head may be deformed after only a summer of use? Is another machining nessecary?
I know too many questions
I think you are right. ARP site says
"81ft/lbs torque based on 75% of strength"
ill make a call on that when i see them im running low on money. Really, I can't afford to be doing this twice. But then again i really can't afford to do it 3 times heh
FYI to anyone considering a cometic gasket. Make sure you use a spray on sealant or whatever the forum recommends. I used a cometic gasket on my build and it leaks. Torqued to 88ft/lbs. Complete engine rebuild i did everything right. Oil passage leaks into the coolant compression seems ok...

Does blocking the heat from the head to the intake mani help in reducing the intake temperature? Would there be any power difference at...
Thanks for the comment bigaaron it is fun at this level. I actually have confidence in my car since my build. Knowing you have the power to blow the doors off some of the cars out there is a good feeling.
And yes i jumped the gun and im sorry. But its one of those things. I had that...
ooook where are those threads. But anyway stuff i read on here and SF Before i started my build made me think i couldnt even make 300hp. I did a lot of reading as i built the car and that seemed to be the consensus at the time.
330hp? Ill have to get it tuned and see.
Tobycat: How did...
For all those that said "Its impossible" I made 313hp/352ft.lbs of torque UNTUNED on a mustang dyno yesterday. Ill have the dyno sheet up when i get a scanner to use. I didnt really expect it because of all you guys on the forum. so take that!
