Of course, I wouldnt trust anything other than Sparktech to light this off. This is the non-CDI for the time being, when it goes on E85 again I will have to see about going to the CDI Pro 12.
The car has been run at 400 ft lbs for 46k, 434whp for 9 months and then over 500 since mid april.

I am not going to go into all the specifics of where and why I think rod bolts fail, but I think 400 ft lbs is not their failure point. It seems its a little higher and typically its because cars are tuned with a big spike in mind which generates tremendous cylinder pressure at low rpm/high load (think stalling force). High revving engines with lower torque survive longer because the load is more gradually applied. I liken it to nitrous shock in a motor, the sudden increase in cylinder pressure can take rod material to the limits of its strength, hit elasticity, then fail. In addition to this is the "normal" tune approach that assumes timing is the most important thing we can do for power and not keeping in mind the direct relation to cylinder pressure.
Somebody please hand this man a cigar!!!
"I would like to but that is a pretty long tow to get put back on a trailer. Not that I am a sore loser but I dont know if I am bringing my car to the event. I plan on being there however

Yes i agree. It should be a great event. And i can pick on your brain on tunning, like i don't ask charlie enough questions already. LOL See you soon.
