My road course experience was so limited, but the car seemed really good. It will push on the autocross but I'm in the middle of a rear sway bar as well. Two different animals for sure. That's the main reason I got an adjustable rear bar. I really didn't go aluminum to shed the weight, it's just a nice side effect. I just felt it made more sense to drop the coin on a special block instead of a run of the mill 454 block. The machining cost is no different, it's simply the cost of the new block minus the pennies I get for the old one. It will end up making alot of sense. To be honest, the engine wasn't on the cars level anyway. I never would've picked that set up today. I wasn't planning on spending this much money on the car. I also didn't have plans to race it much at the time. It's one giant flippin snow ball. I keep telling myself it's going to stop someday.
I've done a ton of research lately, pick my brain anytime.
