    So, im aiming for about 430 crank HP. Is it possible to hit this without messing with bottom end.

    Gas tank leaks a gallon of gas after filling up.

    Like the title says, every time I fill up, the pump clicks I remove the pump, then a gallon of gas comes flowing out the top of the tank. I don’t seem to have a fuel leak otherwise. It seems it may be coming out a vent on the top of the tank. Any ideas?
