That's good to hear. My initial goal is to run low 10s and I probably won't go much faster than that. Being that I will be running a 109 block with forged internals, steel mains caps, roller cam, etc. I currently have a set of Champion Irons on the motor in my car, but I wanted to drive my car this summer and I'm not 100% sure that my irons will both be reusable so I bit the bullet and my engine builder got a new set of GN1s.I have been running gn1s since 2009. The first set was one of the very first made. I ran into the 9s with them, other than the exhaust guides breaking, i had no issues. The set I have now have been on the car since 2010 and they are the latest casting. No issues running 8s.
