    Depends on a few things. They are great for someone just starting out. Easy to drive.
    These engines work well on very slick tracks that dont have a lot of traction.
    They love rpm but a nice set of heads and excellant valvetrain is a must to get up there.
    If you are only running 23* heads, you will be lacking after 8,100-8,200 rpm.
    A 406 will make a lot more torque down lower in the rpm's if you can hook it.
