That's Nice stuff.

I just got some ole -1s

Beautiful!! What is the combo?

I aint got one of them spinny things though

KB Hemi block and Predator heads, Bryant crank, Jesel belt, blah blah blah. 596" single 4 for brackets and mainly .90 racing. Should be 1130ish or so.


Also freshening our 600-13(smaller version not the X or 3X) 655" deal. Should both make similar power numbers. Be interesting to see how they fair as the combos are pretty close to each other in terms of cam numbers and compression carb and both being bracket pieces. But one with a "spread port" type head and the other with a typical BBM type head albeit with a much larger intake valve and cross section. One is 69" bigger as well. We know what the 655 made before and this time it should be a bit better with not so much piston to wall and more compression. Hope to dyno them back to back and Ill share more later when they are both done. Should be an interesting comparison.

I kinda jumped the shark on that already....There was a set of those heads on here complete for $6500 and if I can find them, and if the owner might be interested in some trading parts and cash, that becomes a possibility....So I did put a post in the want ads...

In the meantime, I am working on a fix for my issue on the Hemiroid, and the new cam showed up I will post updates after the weekend. ....Meanwhile, I am nose deep in this thread.

Make sure if you are chasing used Predator parts you get the post NRC stuff, the pieces that Indy now casts after Steve Gill updated the entire casting......

So... does Indy still make these heads? Can't tell by their website it's straight out of the 90s...

Yes.

I wanted to do Predator build initially. Decided I wanted to keep it more streetable for now and went HEMI.

FWIW they just updated their website. Not sute its better but it is new. At least you can search now.

There was a shop tour video on 'Youtu' around the time the Wheatcrafts bought Indy and I think I counted 7 or more pairs of raw new castings. Like Al said the later versions have casting improvements which may or may not be necessary for some milder builds IDK. Scott Brown is in partner with some guys which have a 'big' port cnc program for them FWIW.

Had my hands on an old predator headed engine that Chris Rini used to run, made by Muscle motors. Took the heads to a flow bench and they really weren't very spectacular. Sure, they were old,maybe million valve jobs etc. But still raised some thoughts. The exhaust was decent.
