      @@narmale Richard Holdner has taken a *stock bottom end* LY6 north of 1500 HP. Heads, cam, springs, injectors, and 29 lbs of boost. It would cost more to equip your 60's era clevor with a rotating assembly that would survive 1000 HP, than it would to build the entire 1500 HP LS, my freind, this is 2021, not 1970.

      @NGG1983 3 роки тому +2

      a lot of track guys dont use drilled or slotted rotors because they're more likely to suffer cracking. also they lower your braking surface area overall. basically people just think they look cool and that's why they exist, lol

      Drilled rotors are bad, the holes create a weak point to crack once put through extreme heat cycles. However, the slots are good for trapped gasses to escape allowing even brake pad contact.
