Would a 357XP take to these mods as well as a 359? I know TW has built some hot 359's and I'm just wondering what would come of the smaller dispacement XP version? There are stuffers to consider. What else? Good candidate for a hot worksaw?

Heavy Fuel has a 2156 that has been Snellerized. He was beating some stock 2171's in the races last weekend. I think it responded real well to what Brad did to it.
