If your going on PINKS Rich is pretty hard on the cars that's on the show. He hot laps them and everything. I hope your car holds up, but I doubt it...

you're racing for pinks and $5,000?
so let me get this right? you wanna put a 300shot on your car so you can blow up the motor thus losing your car and $5000? (at least the car wont be worth as much to the new owner)
it seems to me it would be a safe investment to build the motor to take a 300 shot and WIN the other dudes car and $5000 which will pay for the build

Iron. Stronger than aluminum and thats why the old hodrodders do it on their FI and nitrous motors. Best chance. But its like going from 1 in a million to 2 in a million that youll make it down the track as your bottom end will **** well before the aluminum heads.

Alot of old school racers used iron heads because of their budget. Aluminum is the way to go...

No 94s used EPROMS. They were ALL flash memory.
And even then, you're probably looking at the piggyback modules. 93 ECMs (engine control module as opposed to the powertrain control module for 94+) have the actual circuit board that goes into the ECM.
Either way, Hypertech "chips", "tuners", and piggyback modules offer very little in performance gain, if any, and can't hold a candle to the RIGHT way to tune a PCM/ECM.
