Yea that’s why I agreed that a dedicated track car wouldn’t need this complete setup—maybe just the mounts and header. If anything I was trying to highlight that anything for the street or street/track combo will benefit if pushing over 350whp/275tq’ish, refuting the claim that this kit wouldn’t be a good value. At those power levels there is a need for a built motor and transmissions will be ticking time bombs. Consumables and reliability improvements would make the kit a good value.
