[QUOTE="Livernois Motorsports, post: 15095593, member: 151528"] just a few years of dyno testing and engine failure analysis at our facility. you reach a certain point where the main system just shows it's limit on the teksid much earlier than the 3v block. As far as sleeving, give us a shout and we can put together a quote. And he used to used B-heads which made people believe that they were better than GT heads. Until of course he switched and then everyone realized that GT heads were better like we had said all along. Remember when he started building that car, the 3v wasn't even past paper design status yet. Being he already had everything built around a certain platform, why change, even if there is something better? While the block material may only be marginally stronger, the main system is far superior in the 3v. The bigger issue is that people charge a premium for a teksid, and often convince people to move away from a 3v block. This is a step backwards no matter how you look at it. But again, remember when that was first put together. If you started that program today you can be assured it would use different parts. [/QUOTE]
