Nice to see it's holding that much boost, but the long-term test is the one that will tell the true story on the head gaskets. If it's got something comparable to Virginia Speed's double O-ring gasket setup, it's quite possible it'll hold.

Call up VA Speed and they'll tell you about them. They don't post pictures of it because they don't want someone copying them. Fireball on ls1tech had it done on a 402 and ran into the bottom 8s/maybe high 7s IIRC. I want to say that particular motor was putting down north of 1400rwhp with a single 94mm

Does Virginia Speed have it with aluminium block? Or just with the iron one?

Fireball's old setup was 366ci not 402ci and yes he ran high 7s..
