I built this motor myself. I spent about 6k to 7k getting the proper checking tools, sunnen dial bore guages, valve grinder, etc, etc. I did all the clearence checking etc. I did have some help from the people I mentioned if I wasn't clear on something. Ted @ Opel, Rob @ LRT chassis. Rob built the car and helped me a lot along with asking Ted a number of questions.
This is the 2nd version of the motor. I went through it and changed a few things on this version.
I am ordering 8 A/F ration sensors and will be getting the headers ready. I have two now which are in the collectors.
I feel there is another tenth or better. I am looking for a 1.17 60ft time and I will get there.
Kind of funny when you think about it I am using carbs, manifold, and rods that I should of got rid of. I wouldn't sell those carbs if someone offered me 5k. They work all the time every time.
Oh by the way I should scan the time slip if anyone doubts.
