    Hey Micheal this is Eric, as we found out the valves were staying open is why i couldn't stomp on it at all..then on the way home in accident traffic on the highway a rad hose blew..then when i got home we were adjusting the valves and found out the press in studs in the heads were also backing out, so as of right now the motor should be out of the car later today and ill be going with a way different set up which should put me into the 11's for sure! but i know i wont be making it to mission next month which sucks but theres always next year. great video (thanks for not showing the race it died) haha and thanks to cliff for all the help trying to get my issues sorted out it was very much appreciated.
