Tony is asking this as unless your going over the power stated a closed deck is pointless and a waste of money,put it towards the internals on the build mate

Yes, he does.

It's the best/strongest you can get - so good for well over 500+ - should you go there now, or in the future...

Your soon get bored at 420 and want more, so why waste your time and money when you could just get a CDB... what will run alot more in the future

Ive just got myself a CDB for the future as there only going to get rarer

FWIW the Classic open deck block has no problem working over 500 bhp but by comparison the semi open deck 2.5 can have block issues at that power level.
