Just frustrated with the current situation. Car worked very well last few times out, 60's came around pretty fast, I think the 1.12-1.14 should be no problem. Last year I didn't really have a lot of time for racing but it looks like this year can be different.
So anywho, we pulled the motor out to go through it. Bottom end looks perfect, zero issues. The cylinder head has a 1/4" hole in the exhaust runner. Looking and sonic testing shows the port is only .050 thick and we will leave it at that. I am working with the company to solve this issue of clearly a bad casting.
