I haven't called him myself but I have heard he has some older prototype sphinx cyls from the first production runs that we're really low hp motors that were more or less experimental. Not sure if its true or not but..

Sounds like the McCoy drag ported 370 Sphynx [MENTION=400]BigBlock10[/MENTION] is selling would fit the bill nicely:  Drag parts, Sphynx 370,Drag pipe,Bottom end,Lectron,slingshot.

That setup has been sold to a good friend of mine.

Just want some honest opinions from the drag guys on this.  I have a crank to rebuild and the local machinist/engine builders say on our Honda cranks the only real way to true them perfectly is to remove the tins.  I asked about changing crankcase volumes due to removing them and causing changes to velocity and flow effecting performance and possibly causing a loss and they say that there's no way you would ever tell the difference and they could hide a motor without tins in with others and you wouldn't be able to pick it out of the bunch.  Is this true or should I steer clear of this option? I'd like to know whatever info there is out there. Thanks
