With only 2 races left I'm thinking about winter upgrades. I'm hitting the stripe at 6600rpm in good air so I want to get this thing balanced. Will my stock crank live at this RPM or slightly higher if I make HP gains this winter?

The second item is porting my D2 PI heads and new SS valves. Can these heads be port matched to a victor intake with reasonable effort? I'm planning to swap out my Offy port-o-sonic for a victor.

The third item is carburetion - it likes the 850 upgrade, would a 1050 Domi be too much for my combo? I'm asking because I have decide which flange to buy on my victor intake.

I'll definitely be moving into a 1150.. maybe sooner rather than later.. After speaking with my builder.. my 1050's holding back a lot of power.
