Time will tell how reliable, The issuse on the dyno last time was head gasket hopefully the change will fix this,
All my engines have been going up on comp for the last couple of years and these have proved very reliable so Rods engine is not to much of a risk on the reliablity side,
We know why the gasket failed and have made other changes also based on what happend,
I have another 2 engines on the go in this spec so Rods will not be the only proving the reliablity at this level.
