    Pete ;

    You didn't pay attention to what I said : FlatHeads are not good for my driving use .

    WPC Products are always good drivers .

    If you'd followed my initial breakin regimine , the rings would have been seated in 60 seconds .

    Next time .

    I'm opening up an old 1966 292 L6 for maybe use in my '69 C/10 .

    6 Bangers 'till I die :D .

    Martinius-

    I don't know all of the specific of the MRJ truck, other than it is running an Arias 12 port head.

    In order to race on the salt during Speed Week, you do have to pay a fee, and go through a tech inspection before you are allowed to race. There are specific rules for each class, and minimum safety standards that have to be met as well. You can read all about it at: http://www.scta-bni.org/

    Pete
