Why do I picture a 15 year old, zit faced fat kid as the master "Blockman".

Interesting cf thread....Scare tactics....scare everybody into thinking their 2 bolt will blow-up first time they push the go pedal....

But, the reality of it is, you rarely see naturally aspirated pump gas street/strip 6000 rpm motors blow-up.... in fact, its very rare. I have spent hundreds of weekends at the dragstrip over the years, and the motors that are oiling the track down are typically either power adder cars or 7000+ rpm motors..... but docile street/strip 6000 rpm cars ?.... extremely rare.

Quite frankly, even the 7000+ rpm cars that on occasion oil the track the problem is rooted from a valvetrain issue before a shortblock problem.

Having said that, if given the choice, I'd choose a 4 bolt as I have.....but, I wouldn't be scared of bracket racing a 2 bolt until the wheels fell-off....let alone put-putting around in a street car.
