building a FAST legal small block

Adam, I told you I was looking into that before. There are all kinds of legal ways to make things work. If you plan to race mroe than once per event, you need to be fast. I know a bit of what soem of the guys were doing, and I have a few dieas of my own if you're serious. But it takes a ton of cash as was said. This is not a thing where Bobby whips up a set of irons and the software spits out a camshaft to match, then you go and win. Not even close. A "typical" LA based engine will cost over 10Gs to be competitive. You need to decide what you want and what you can afford.
