Ask any racer. Any real racer. It don't matter if you win by an inch or a mile. Winning's winning.
Why was this necessary?

Also, who all here is going to the Pavilions on Saturday? The weather has been cooling down a little and should be nice once the sun sets

What's the damage to the block and rotating assembly?

If you can I would go with forged pistons and rods at least. Maybe get some decent heads too if you can afford it.

If you want to build a 408 though you might want to just try and find a used LS1.
