Sweet! Everyone likes a lil drama. Let see someone throw a two hundred shot on a stage 3 and see what she runs...
Don't tease me......

We do, but there's a benefit with upgrading to stronger and especially lighter forged internals if one's willing to pay and take their build that far.

How much money is the "willing to pay" part?

It weighs roughly 3800 with me and a full tank.
Its a bit front heavy.. but not much as long as there is at least 1/2 full gas back there.
I can't remember the weight of the springs. Its been a few years since i went through all that. But here is a second gear hit on the street.. you can see it hooks pretty good. Again this is only 8 psi.

Yeah much lighter on the wallet. People seem to forget these engine don't turn many rpm to begin with. You can get billet rods that are just as strong and just as light if not lighter but still hard on the pocket.
My other one does 8200 though
