Looking good can't wait to hear that beast
Brian, Are you going to have dyno headers with the bungs for egt readings?
Beautiful. Just curious why no EWP? I'm sure you have a good reason.
Jason.............all your initials confuse me!!!! What's EWP??????????????
Sorry Phil. EWP = Electric Water Pump. I've always said I'd never paint a set of aluminum heads, but that does look beautiful in good ole Chevy Orange!!!!
That's as good a reason as any. That vacuum pump is going to be good for freeing up some power and better ring seal.
That will still fit under a stock hood won't it? Think I remember seeing it under one.
I've always wondered why they don't eliminate some weight from the space between the runners on each side. It's not like it needs all that extra support.

Looks sweet Brian can't wait to hear the numbers !
I see 9's in your future!
I have a bad case of 409 envy..............
I've been suffering from that for 25 years!!! Finally found one.....but still envious of this awesome engine.
I'm betting Brian makes 780HP from this one.....maybe a little more.
Cool!!
Did your stroker pistons/rods sell? I couldn't find the ad. Thought my block had already been bored .030", but it turns out it's standard. Not sure how much it will take to clean it up yet. Thinking about cutting my compression plans down from 13.5:1 to the 11.5:1 range and doing more double duty with the car instead of track only. Miss driving it.

They don't know how to put in valve seats!! Thank god we had only run the motor for a few minutes before we knew something was wrong,
