Back in the day, there was a guy that frequented the HTT forum, his handle was "Hippo". Hippo came up with a combination for a 95" build that pretty much guaranteed 100/100 numbers with the right exhaust and proper tune which were really good numbers from a 95" motor 20 years ago. The combination was SE 95" flat top pistons, .030" head gasket, S&S 570 cams and a set of SE heads out of the box. Enough guys used that formula that the build became the "Hippo build". Hippo hasn't been with us for several years now and there are just a few still around that remember the Hippo build.

That reminds me of Short Block Charlie and his Scotsman heads. They both had quite the fanboi following dating back to the days of MSN Groups.
