I tried to run the scorpion--- but returned them thru Summit---there was a design/Mfg. flaw---Trying to remember but I think it was the center hole over the top of the head bolts that was the problem--it was counter bored so deep and then the clearance machining over the top of the head bolts left only about 3-4 threads left----I called Scorpion and spoke with the engineer they were aware of the problem and supposedly were changing mounting bars but this was going to take 6mo. probably wanted to use up existing inventory----no other problems with them other than that---that was in 2018 so probably fixed by now---I ended up running LGM no complaints other than they sent me 1.6 Intakes instead of the 1.7 I had ordered----I only run 560# open
