They're developing the csr shield which is carbon fiber from the front bell to the case. If you have a blanket it's good to 10s, the steel flex plate shield is additional and necessary for 9s.
Together they're good for 6s
I've been meaning to ask what are performance expectations with the 470? Hoping to get to the 9.90s?
I was hoping in my 451 effort. But stuck in 10.20s. (Single carb, N/A) I'm setup for a shot of nitrous. But have no experience with. Plus it makes me feel that I'd be using "Cheater gas" lol.
My Duster chassis is not set for anything under 9.90s anyways. I'm guessing your Dart simular?
