[Supras] MHG failures?

[Sean Cavanaugh]

for what your going to be pushing on it, that HG wont fail. its usually the HIGH HP MKIV guys i hear that blown MHG and thats when theyre pushing 1200-1500+HP in a drag setup, and the HG develops a mild crack.
 
I think you're more likely to blow the piston out the side of the block than to blow a cometic in your config.
