FIFTY LBS OF BOOST! holy moley.

1)How does he keep the heads sealed!
2)How does he keep the heads attached to the cylinder.
3) How does he get the intake valve closed once its opened! (serious spring pressures I'm sure)

The next time he shows up at Atco dragway I'll ask him.

I quickly calculated the Force keeping the intake valve open: assume the valve is 1.9" dia.

Area is 2.8"square inches X 50psi = 140lbs!+
the inertia of the valve. YIKES!
