[QUOTE]Originally posted by Notch1320: [QB] The combination of parts is everything!!! In the end, money is always the limiting/deciding factor for most people. Some guys spend huge dollars to make a GT-40 headed combination perform for a speific class while others are just happy with out of the box aluminum heads. There are plenty of cars going fast with GT-40's... well into the 10's for that matter. Look at any car in NMRA Factory Stock, and read the rules for that class to see some serious power and shocking ET's from a dedicated group of racers with very limited parts list. It takes some big money to run with them, and actually, the class champ for the past few years runs "unported" E-7's when 90% of them run GT-40's, orGT-40p's. Oh... and they run power steering and pullied water pumps too. No Smog or A/C though. For the average guy, you can't beat the standard aluminum H/C/I package...unless you are willing to spend some a good mount of money, and/or have the smarts to piece a combination together with the GT-40's. My own car makes well over 300RWHP with unported E-7's, stock intake, stock throttle body, stock stamped steel rockers and stock lift cam....it wasn't easy, and it certainly was NOT cheap... There will always be a heated debate on this subject, and someone will always be faster... Maybe we should set up a little shootout between the two combinations??? This post could get real interesting.... If you are one of the die-hard debaters on either side of this debate, then how about putting your money where your mouth is and get in the other lane!!!
