That particular dry sump tank doesn't come with the electric pre-heater pads but has the enternal elements--only kicker is that they take 110 volts so we will need to take one of those little Honda portable gen sets to the staging lanes. Jessel rockers in that ratio we discussed is not yet available for that version of cylinder head--He said though since Nascar has accepted that change that they will be working on them and should have them by the time we're ready to run. The 4-2-1 merge collectors will be pretty short in the 4-2 section but we will be able to change the tune lenght in the 2-1 section as it will be outside the body--they will have v-band clamps like on Ralpies pipes and we just swap lengths of megaphone to change the tune. The O2 sensors also will be in 2-1 section just after the 4-2 merge.
Maskin said that the block is available with the cam tunnel already bored for the needle bearings and a 4.180 bore with the widened pan rails will clear the stroke we want to use if we use steel rods instead of the composites.

Oh, by the way, the Mopar made 1320 HP at 9300!
