Can the head be welded up as a spare? I've repaired some pretty badly damaged heads and they've lived to fight another day.

I doubt it Pete, I have a few spares .
The run was nearly aborted before it began, Dodge Honda cdi, even though I have a huge Harley battery,( no spark below 11.7 Volts) the day was cool, the pilot, midrange jetting was fat, I couldn't get it fired until the lakester before me left the line, so my mojo was gone,,,when I hit 16,000 revs, (thought I was in top) I was happier than the 1st time butterflies blew out my arse, thinking I was knocking on 130's door, how wrong can ya be,,lol, I even went the full mile wot, which told me a few things, boost dropped to 10 (from 12) @ 16,200 and it wasn't gonna go any faster, max HP is at 16,000, blower seemed maxed out (revs) and carb is a tad too small, one day, I'll know if it likes my top gear gearing ?
I lost 8 mph on the salt compared to asphalt testing.
