NO NASCAR PISTONS PERIOD.. They are way too thin
Dave, I'm looking forward to seeing you at the salt this year but...
did you really say that! You & I both failed pistons but are you going to
blame it on a piston that runs 500 + miles @ WOT tuned to a knats a$$ and
suggest it won't live at the salt? I agree in endurance builds for Bonneville
but
I think our issues & failures were related to other causes, not trying to
argue just my point of view. I know it happened twice to you but all the same,
I
don't think it's a blanket statment... & I suspect you didn't mean it that
way.
I'm really looking forward to seeing how the Berkly responds to "tunnel"
input. It will be interesting to see how the lift relates to the c/d vs weight
we've discussed in the past. My program shows going from 252 mph to 294 if you
can run @ that .178 c/d.
See you soon.
Mike
