Beautiful parts there Andy......

Some how that crank just doesn't look right on that dirty carpet though......:D

Imagine a aluminum block that can handle huge cubes coupled with adjustable roller rockers and the ability to utilize a 700 or 800 lift cam so the cubes could be put to real use??? Were getting there little by little.....:jawdrop:

you have 2 on the top and 2 from the side. The center 3 caps are 4 on the top and 2 on the side. That makes 2 caps 4-bolt and the other 3 are 6-bolt.

Well that makes life alittle easier and cheaper!!! LOL

Im thinkin a stroker is better for me up here dealing with -50 then a F/I motor.

God willing this winter.

Thanks for the Info Andy
