Drag racing. An adrenalin rush like no other. It felt like going into combat, tasting your first beer, and losing you virginity, all in about 8 seconds.

I just looked at REEDRACERS signature quote:

I guess you never raced on a circle track, on dirt, if you think drag racing is the ultimate adrenaline rush.............

It lasts a lot longer than 8 seconds too!!!

Pardon me for the hijack.

Are they 3D scanning the engine, or how are they achieving that?

The original intake was 3D scanned, and converted into solids in CAD from the scan data. From there, several 3D printed versions were created for fit check on both early and late model engines.

Also made a billet late model on the CNC as well:
