I know they are capable of making more than they can safely handle. Where is that line that I don't want to cross? Thanks for the help, Jody

He had issues after about 1000hp if I remember correctly. Wish he was still around here. He made me a fan at last years race here in KY. There are several places around that do it but he was one of the leaders of the pack.
