NEW, Engine Build-up Progess Pics

[69clark]

Got sick of waiting for the internals to be balanced from the engine shop so I decided to mock up the engine with all the new parts. Hopefully the engine shop will call soon so I can start putting stuff together.

These aren't the AFR heads on the motor, they are just an extra set of ported cast iron heads I had, and just used them for the mock-up. These are also the old headers as I will be putting ceramic coated ones on whe I get them. The custom intake plate isn't done yet so that's not on either. Have to custom make another set of wires as the old ones aren't long enough for the new looms. But basically this is how it should look. I like it but still TONS of work left.

LEt me know what you think!

holy mother of jesus!

Sweetness. Are you goin to be the first "known" to run that intake on an SN95 car?

 

[95riosnake]

that is probably the coolest lookin breather I've ever seen too lol.

 

[MysteryMachine]

J I think he will be. Atleast as far as we know lol

Hope you don't mine me calling you by a letter

MM- I don't know, I bought them at a rod show. They are just like the billet specialties in Summit, they are just knock-offs though.

70mach1- I think so. I didn't want to be but one day I said f*** it, I gonna try it. I still think the TFS track heat would be a better intake for my setup, but the BBK looks so damn good that "the women are gonna want me, big time!" lol

Dan- I thought so to. Looking for something different than everyone else has (as usual) so after quite awhile on ebay I came across them. They, like the motor, look even better in person than the pics show.

[SeventyMach1]

No se.

I just copied his.

Tell him now Jinx ..... or .....

 

[69clark]

Yeah I will probably call Monday. I just don't want to piss them off too much and be too pushy, it is the time of year that they are working on a lot of race motors for the racing season.

 

[SeventyMach1]

Yeah, I'd be tactful in a situation like that Clark .... but don't let them push you to the back burner either.
