12:1 can be done on pump gas with a really good tune and some big cams.
I really want the Skunk2 cams for it... I think its possible. I love the smell of race gas anyway =D

The bearings? You'd think the warped head had something to do with it wouldnt u think? coolant gets into the oil which gets to the bearings, etc. Find the problem, swap the head and wham. I take care of my ride. I checked every little thing that could have been the culprit before I pulled it. Its a matter of taking pride in it. And its a toy, a weekend ride. If it cost me 50 bucks to fill it up with 122 then sobeit, I only drive it when Im home anyway which is a couple times a month.

Catastrophic failure? LOL and what if it gets together, gets a good tune from the guys over at RPM,inc. and runs like a scalded dog? Then what Snoop? lol youre a trip.

i can not recall any trip (for alteast last few months) in which i haven't hit redline of my car. i just love the acceleration at high rpm. its like shit under 3k.

even though i dont floor it every single time, i just rev it up to about 4k and then floor it. its awesome

dont give a shit about this motor any more (even though i have a little over 100k on it.
starting next year, i'll be building an h22.
