OK, I can't figure this part of the article:

“If you’re not in the “clique”, you’ll be the one randomly torn down. There’s a lot of politics involved and everyone but me knew NHRA had an LS1 cylinder in their trailer to compare with ones on my car.”

Why would NHRA have a cylinder? They cut off a cylinder to take to the races? What the heck would they be looking for? It's either either in the bore specs or not...lost me on that one!

He's referring to the cylinder head.

My LS1 was torn down before his and I never seen another head. They looked at mine like they did everyone else's stuff and that was that.

Hey Buddy.....I believe with all the trouble you and the Tech guy were having(Even with my assistance), that they felt a little sympathetic.
