That's why it will crack.

That's why it will crack.

I have a hunch that the people involved in building this thing might know what they are doing..

Theres a few sets of solid cast heads in pull trucks that have been running this season.. Not sure if that relates much to a 1/4 mile but outta be similar. Interesting none the less! Sounds wicked I bet!

They better. Nasty Girl didn't do too well with the same persons build.

Nasty Girl went through 4(5?) engines before it got to Curtis. The engine he built lasted 2-1/2, 3yrs, went 10.3 and the owner ran the piss out of it. The truck was then sold but customs wouldn't let it across. To look presentable for customs the new owner changed it back to stock turbo, still with 200% injectors. Ran it around that way until a head cracked. The heads were removed and it sat for awhile. When Curtis got it again the thing was a rusty mess. He rebuilt it. Finally the engine/trans were shipped to the US, truck remains in Canada.

It's not running yet, just on exhibit at the races. Another couple weeks and it should be making noise.

It did well with the motor Curtis built. Curtis is a very good builder and person as well.

Was bending Curtis ear a few days ago and he was telling be about these hemi heads.... I told him to stop hiding out in CA, his friends to the south miss him..

 

[Dirtymaxx03]

I would love to know how much power it put down, I guess it will be going to the World Finals for its first run.
