Thought I would share the coolest street car engine I have ever built.

Yup, that water manifold is trick, how does it work out, or is it "cool" too? biggrin

Guess I shouldn't overlook the rocker cradle. up

Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.

I'm surprised you didn't talk the Harshman's in to doing a billet intake as well Brett!

Looks like the lower/ water manifold is! Nice. Always like seeing a Brett post.

Tuki with a spray gun or a paint brush = Jeremy with a machine or a design program.


If the results don't match the theory, change the theory.

Any idea what the thing weighs? Imagine it's got to be significantly lighter than most anything out there.

N/A combo or...?

No idea on weight but it’s light.

This is just a high end NA street engine.

That valley cover is beautiful.. Any particular reason why you check piston to valve without the other rockers on???? And i love steel rockers, its been so nice that companies are now making them with the offset for intakes...

I can send you the CAD files for the front cover that I used to make if you're interested. I'm not planning on doing anything with SB engines and it looks like you're doing some cool stuff with them. Shoot me a PM if you you're interested.
