I think most performance parts nowadays  are coming from China/India or somewhere else not USA. The major brands are not advertising this of course, but something to keep in mind.

FE Technical Forum / Re: Preferred Fasteners for Intake

I used an ARP full engine set. I may have had to use a few washers to fit the performer RPM intake. I used a full engine kit because I was building a complete motor and it was the easiest solution. The intake bolts are really just holding it in place unlike the bolts for the mains and heads that are holding against the engine operating loads. I’d just get SS or chromed bolts from the hardware store if I did it again.

Hello,

I posted this on the other forum without any luck and figured I’d try here too. Does anyone have a full set of FE engine design / production drawings they would be willing to share or sell?

It would be greatly appreciated.

3D printing is already accessible to everyone now. I built a 3D printer based on parts from a kit for less than $200 two years ago. The printing filament material is advancing rapidly. Higher temperature and stronger materials for usable parts are now available but typically require higher print temperatures and an upgraded printer. But I am just talking plastics. 3D printing metals still requires expensive equipment.

Jay,

Really cool what you are doing. I was wondering if you considered plastic for the intake manifold. It appears the coolant is already isolated from the intake manifold. The intake is just channeling air. Plastic would be lighter and better insulate out the heat.
