More proof that it didnt happen. No way stock cast heads would flow enough to rev past 7k. The cam is too big for the heads too. Not having any mercy on cars would not help that anchor of an engine rev to over 9k. Sorry it didnt happen.

His car pushes over 7000. I have another video of him racing a BPU supra reving to 7200. Great sounding setup, Lt's and x pipe duals

first engine i ever built was a 355 (12 years ago), rebuilt stock bottom end. hyd .480 cam stock heads w/ the right springs. In a car w/ 4.56 gears I accidentally took it past 8k a few times. went there with ease. 1st gear was a killer. no rev limiter or anything. but its possible. Ive heard of basically stock 350s running insane rpms. Not lasting long but they did it.

Launching!
I think i have seen that Verbs guy a few times too. But he was always losing to some guy in a wheelchair. BTW, we need that portion of the video of you and Bryce racing when we put the handicap symbol on the back glass. Load it on here.
