>Well if you're interested in what altitude a head can go, try to figure
how 
this looked.  At a tractor pull around '81, a guy in the super stock class,

running an IH tractor with six stage turbocharging (if you don't know, ask 
me) and about 200 pounds of boost (that is not a typo), not only lifted the

head but dropped the crank at about mid track.  I'm not exactly sure WHERE 
that head eventually landed.  A picture made it in a magazine called
pulling 
power.  So if you get the urge to experiment with a turbo on your LBC,
please 
let me know.  I've got a good camera and plenty of film.

Exploding bolts sounds easier.
