Charlie is pretty slick with Mazda engines, his last street car had a b6t he built that could go forever without darkening the oil or filling up the catch can, and he had tens of thousands of track miles on it on top of street miles. I can ask for more details on the cylinder head swap. His next engine will possibly be an 11k rpm ~700hp destroked/big bore/long rod BP based engine left over from a land speed car, hes trying to get the rpm up to keep tq low with more hp up top to minimize traction issues.
