You could try the Print Place team. Shawn Petersen and Kevin Ramey.
You can hit them both up on facebook.

I'm sure there are a few guys in the N. Texas area who have a 410 to bolt in their car on occasion. All of the sprint racing around here is 305 except when ASCS comes to town. I was in Knoxville for the 360 Nationals. They ran the 305 class on Saturday night. I thought they put on a pretty good show. They have around 25 of them and they were much faster than Texas 305 cars. I'm guessing they don't run Racesaver rules?

I think this person ^ has it nailed.
It's predominantly 305 and 360 around these parts. There's no one that has 410 shows near here except for Kilgore, and that's not even 'that' close to DFW.
My options are dried up. Hope you can find a lift home bud.

Dry slick, there where a few cars from Texas that ran racesaver cars in that 305 race. You didn't notice because they couldn't have been that much slower. Kilgore no longer runs 410s. I think 410s in Texas is completely gone.

There were two cars from Texas in that feature and the highest finishing was 15th. From what I can tell, at Devils Bowl the 305 cars are very noticeably slower than a 360 car. Knoxville is an even bigger track. The 305s there were slower than the 360s, but not as much as I had noticed between the two classes at the Bowl. That's just my observation, and the observation of the other two guys I was with. We weren't using a stopwatch or anything like that. The difference on the stopwatch between a Knoxville 305 and Racesaver 305 may not be that much.
I did notice that there are differences in the rules between the two. Looks like the Racesaver limits total valve lift. There is also a difference in the heads apparently. I have no idea how much power difference this amounts to, if any. It just looked to us like the Knoxville 305 engines have a little more power.

Yes two cars from Texas. 1 from new Mexico. Not sure but I believe that is a racesaver or ascs car as well. I am with you on I believe the Knoxville cars make more power. I believe they are faster as a whole. Just don't think the difference is that great. I was really curious as to the difference speed wise. Just glad our guys were mid pack and not just in the way.

Check with Gary Taylor or Wolfie. They both are in Knoxville watching the 410s and will
return back to the Dallas area after the show. They might be around Jack Dover's car.
