As stated before in other threads....we rate the Compstar to 1000hp
(I know people are pushing them past that)

DragonSlayer can take some serious abuse, I know some heavy hitters on here have pushed over 2000 on them with no problems. With that said, once you cross the 2,500 make, the Ultra Billet is the answer, due to the center counter weights to reduce strain on the thrust bearing.

Again....Compstar is our off-shore brand, that we very heavily control,
(we supply the forgings, engineering and we finish in house)

The Magnum XL, is the same as the Magnum, it is milled differently, for weight reduction. The XL is very popular with Circle Track and Road Racing crowd. In most cases it is around 40-42 pounds on a 4.000 stroke, as apposed to 48 for the standard magnum.
