Is that not because the way of making the block makes it stronger than cast? Therefore no need for as much material which cuts down the weight.

Our block is 3/4 filled so we cant really tell how strong the stock block is but so far it's good

Well, you can use a stronger material and use less. And it just equals what's necessary. Or you can use stronger material at the previous rate which equals more strength... They may have a stronger material, just very thin. So overall strength is not known yet.

Ending the night with one head on hoping to end our journey for that 9 sec pass this weekend with a few little modifications we have done

Good luck. I would love to see this thing get in the 9s on fuel only.

Where did the gaskets fail the first time, when the factory bolts were put back in?

100% studded now? That's a bummer.. Held better with the stock bolts thrown in the mix lol. Hate to see it Craig.. Hope you guys give it another shot before putting it away for the season.

This time it held worse than the h13s and the 4 top stock bolts I'm not pointing finger yet but I would find it hard to believe the block is cracked
