T&D paired rocker, 1.75 ratio

Springs are Manley 221425 2.00" 340 seat 837lbs open, 1.150 coil bind and we are .050 from coil bind with .024 lash

Here is a pic of the pan, it has 4 drain backs, 2 on each head (front & back).

The 1# main cap cross bolt hit the oil pump so I had to cut it off.

Given the HP level on spray, I'm surprised the pistons didn't have all those machined corners blended & radiused before being coated.

There are no sharp edges on the Pistons, they did slightly radius them but they could have been a little more aggressive.

Here is a picture of the nitrous softening Bucks did to the chambers. (I have to go and touch them up because we had to surface them for a small scratch from when we machines the pads down for the T&D rockers.)

Alan, not throwing stones at you specifically but this is what is really getting on my nerves anymore. It takes forever to get anything done. Chassis shops, engine/machine shop and paint & body guys are the worst. lol spank

I hear where you're coming from Mike, my friend who bought the orange Dart from over your way is having the same problem. Put his car to have some chassis work done, was told it'd be done in 3 weeks. 5 weeks later, still hasn't been started.

As for the Rocker covers, been bogged down with my divorce. I'll have something done by June

Sorry for the hijack!

Is the "softening" that 'semi-hemi" cut on the opposite side from the spark plug? I have a set of B1s that have been milled to 47cc chamber and that "semi hemi" cut would go a long way to making the chambers larger.

Edit: I looked at my 47cc chamber heads and they have been surfaced all the way to the edge of the 2.44 intake valve seat. No room to "semi hemi" left.

That looks like a big scoop cut in that pic......but it's not. Usually it's only about 2 CCs in the taper cut. So no, just "softening" the chamber in your 47CC heads isn't doing much

is my eyesight getting that bad, or does it appear from the pic there seems to be chatter marks on the valve heads ? if it is just the shadows of the pic, ok. but if it is chatter, what is it's purpose ? can you catch it with your finger nail ?

Finally finished this one and got it on the Dyno.

I was hoping for 800-850hp but expecting just 800 so I and my customer were very pleased with the 904hp number.

This was with 91 pump gas that I picked up at the Quick-Stop on the way to the dyno.

The header gaskets we used were hanging into the exhaust ports close to 1/4" all the way around, the headers were some that were just given to me and have mufflers on them so there were a few more HP left on the table.

I'd like to publicly thank Monte for helping me design of several aspects of the motor (and of course the awesome work on plumbing the intake).

I'm not a nitrous guys so my work is done with it but it's build and designed to handle an additional 800+ HP of giggle juice.

Nice numbers, but....... You ran it without any crank case breathers?
