Ed , had meant to ask you before -

while the engine was apart did you do any more work on the interior of the intake manifold ?

Any other progress worth mentioning on the car lately ?

Thanks

Hey Baron,

After spending $600 with McCarty for intake port work alone you’d expect it would be good to go for the intended application. For your guys running at least 25lb of boost with a basic single plane what mods have you performed on the plenum?

Here is what it currently looks like.


As for the chassis, the drivetrain is in its final position with engine and trans mounts done, lower firewall has been cut back to make room for the exhaust and the front bars are done. Turbo and intercooler piping next as well as seeing if the all steel frontend sheet metal can be removable. With the poor header design, it will be a B!%$h to work on.

yeh i remember it was just an intermediate level gasket match with some quick hasty blending. Maybe $100 or so worth of labor. For only $600 - groovy man.

Not that its crippling anything -
was just wondering if you improved on it any.


You still have those original guide plates and rocker arms ?

I still have the guide plates, there in a tool box somewhere, crane energizers rockers are gone. Replaced almost the entire valve train when the engine was redone, running T&D now. They make a really nice piece.

Rockers do look great - hmmm - BTW - I was wondering why the list of vendors in your signature line - given the grief they have caused you ????
