Huh? Does this make any sense?
Why would anyone put 9.0:1 Cast pistons in a short block with this size cam, or vice versa? Forget the rest of the other things wrong with this combo.

Go figure, some people have more money than sense!

He must have gotten 'a deal' on those pistons. That cam is worth more then the rest of the stuff he has in it, lol.

Might be a good engine to drop a twin turbo on.

I loved racing people like that when I was young. More money than brains. They always bragged about their engine until after the race.
