Think I could pull a wheelie in 5th gear with a 460cc? > : )
 
with 11/48 and a 460 i say no problem! only be moving about 10mph though lol


and ive only pulled a wheelie in 5th by shifting from 4th in the dunes with 12/40 XD. other wise its not gonna happen
 
If ya had the power, I still doubt you'd have the clutch. These are heavy beasts, I'd be really happy to have mine hangin the wheels in 3rd, lol! Truthfully though, hangin the wheels looks cool & can be fun but it's lost energy. I like Pro Stock cars so I'll use them for example but if you watch a Pro Stock car leave the gate, they pull the wheels a few inches & carry them for a good bit of the track. Good use of energy transfer to plant the tires w/o wasting it... As far as the 460 kit goes, Greg has told me before that he can have custom pistons made by JE to accommodate whatever bore size & compression ratio so I doubt that's a huge issue. Honestly, I'm sure if you gave him a target compression ratio that you were interested in to run pump fuel then he could likely mill the piston dome down a bit to reduce it's area, lower compression & keep a correct quench area w/o using a thicker gasket. You'd just have to talk to him about it.
 
The day I went out and bought my Warrior they let me test drive it. My dad came with me and he was able to pop a wheelie in 3rd but he is 6'4 and 250lbs

Yeah I actually talked to him about that and he said this. "i do offer a thicker head gasket for my stokers that will alow you to use 92 or 93 ocatne pump gas."

Warrior weights like 398 lbs I believe so it's not real heavy. FST sells HD clutch springs and you can put another small steel in the clutch pack and she will hold.
