thats awesome man. Thats like a guy I used to know that would find old Chevy 6.2 diesel motors and use the blocks from them for race motors as the castings were so much stronger than the 350s and 400s.

This raises the question...why didnt GM put the TPI system on trucks where they could be useful?
