I have the car at race weight. Weighted class is N/SA and for my combo according to class racer info that's 3534 with me in it. Currently have it at 3560 with my 4 corner scales.

Mark Lewis put the engine together for me, I think he did a great job with what he had and I trust the rings are sealing properly. I haven't noticed any extra blow-by, the valve cover breather has 0 signs of oil comin out of it after 4 1/8 mile passes.

Also, I understand that this car will not backhalf and pick up time in the 1/4. I figured I'd have to go at least .10 to .15 under the 1/8 mile index to get under the 1/4 mile 13.00 index for N/SA
