Fingers race cast are the only choice in my book period! I have yet to have a failure with them so I see no point in forged unless you need less then 15.5:1compression which 98% of people have no reason for. When I did the half mile race with my truck this fall I don't think you could put them through much more abuse than that! 4passes at full tilt with 120psi boost for twice the distance and time of a normal 1/4mile drag race. We have pushed them well past 1700hp without issue so why do we keep having this conversation??? It would be different if someone would come out with something as high in quality but at a lower price but that definitely hasn't happened yet!
