[RAT ATK]

^^^ I thought you were already sitting on most of the needed parts for a new top end.

When I do the engine, it will be done right with new parts and only done once.

Holy shiat - $ 20 000 CAD wonder how many laps it would be happy at 7000 rpm; may just be a drag motor ?

Coyote motor is a monster but until you start to find em in the wreckers etc, cost is pretty rich.
