Nice! Love those valve covers and the way the whole engine looks.   ;D

Nice build. Streetable compression?

That looks like a great power curve and nice looking engine too.

with all of it being BBM, I'm curious did the parts all fit together or did you have to machine anything for proper fit?

Not questioning a great build, or your capabilities in any way, but what do you use to forecast if it will live on 91?  A few of us have techniques to let them live on pump gas.  BBM chambers sure help by reducing the total required, but to make that power, still got to pack the cylinders full :)

Care to share SCR, cam timing, and quench?

Do you know the cam specs? I'm curious.

Very nice :-)


Where does one get a set of valve covers such as those if I may ask ??

Those are some Blue Thunder competition valve covers with emblems attached.
