The Cuda lives, again. Will have nitrous, but I dropped it back to 125hp. This motor has cast pistons. My headers are pretty much shot, but I can still get a little more use out of them. They are only 25 yrs old :roll: . Putting a few street miles on her, to break in the engine, then need to get it to Gainesville, for a test and tune. I doubt the Valiant will make the Ga race. Keep finding more things to do.

Charlie,

Tell us more about the engine, cylinder head in particular. Also, is the Pro on the windshield for the .400 sec Pro Tree?
