Just got home today with my new (well new to me) motor for my 2wd pulling truck.Thought some of you guys might like to see some pics of it. It is a standard deck spread lifter brad billet block.Veney 2.5 heads. Setback manifold.Just freashened at veney's. 4.5 bryant crank. MGP rods. 4.375 bore.

The "old" BAE and the new veney.

Last one

I happened to see it when I was out at Veney's Monday dropping of a gasket order.
Wish I would have known you were getting it, we could have met out there.

Very few people have a shot at getting one of them, good for you I'm sure you'll be pleased with it. Hope you like the valve cover gaskets

Let's see your 2WD

What a combo! Your playing with power now

Thanks. Here is a pic of the truck as of last year. I am redoing the body for this year and hopefully will get painted apple kandys. We are very exited to get in the chassie and here it run but it is going to be awhile alot of parts are different from my last deal.

Need someone to haul that old scrap away for you?

Nice.....very nice.

That thing looks evil

Very nice! Did Goodwin work on this one>?

yes he worked on the BAE motor.

Why the switch to a Veney motor? Is it better than a BAE? And what is a pinched chamber Veney head (don't know if yours is but it popped up when I googled Veney HEMI)

It is better in the pulling world. The brad heads need to be run lean to make good power. The veneys tend to be able to be run a little richer and still make good power.In the pulling sport the motors are wide open for 10-15 seconds with the biggest load at the end. With that much load and heat if you don't have a little extra fuel BANG! I learned the hard way. The pinch or bathtub heads are something new. I was told there are only 7 motors out with that style heads at this time. I run against 2 of them. The head is the same as the regular heads but side of the chamber are filled in.There is 2 versions 2.6 and 2.5. Most of the veney heads are called by the intake valve size. As for hauling away the old junk. It needs to find a new home but I don't think I am ready to give it away just yet.

How much for the brad engine? What block, crank and heads is it?
