He can always run 1/2 inch ARP head studs in it on bolt head for the 1 mile run with high boost.

From what we have found even with 1/2 studs. The head will still start lifting at 1200ish with stock castings.

Good to know on the ls stuff it wasn't doing that until you got into the 30 plus on the blower pressure. Plus the same on cracking the blocks on the RHS blocks..

I would have thought those ARP 1/2 stuff would have done the job for 25 to 27 boost level.. Again good to know..
