Quote: ...Comp Cams forgot to turn the water on to our 906 headed 500ci stroker and burnt it to a crisp during the ring break in. It got hot enough to start burning the paint on the cylinder heads. We bandaged it back together and the following day managed to scratch out 730HP with leakdowns at 23%, 30%, 32% and 56%. It was impossible to tune the carburetor with all the exhaust gasses flowing back into the intake manifold through the warped intake valves and seats.
