42 Lightning heads to Young Performance
 
3 Attachment(s)
TRL505 gave me a pull down to Young Performance this weekend. Eddie is going to do a heads and cam swap, tune as well as send the blowers off to DMPE for rebuilds.

I had planned on doing a top end refresh originally (on stock heads) and getting rid of factory head gaskets (01 boat) but after talking to Eddie, doing a set of nice aluminum heads with all new hardware was a much better option.

I also wanted to get the flat tappet cams out of them before they dwindled themselves down to toothpicks. Switching to roller.

Same thing with the blowers. I didn't want to take a chance at something in the blower potentially letting loose and pinballing all the way thru my engine.

Eddie and his right hand man, Travis are both 2 legit 2 quit, and know their sh!t. As expected, I was very impressed.

A few pics... rig set up - and the before and after of just one day of having the engines.

B.S....we could ALL tell by the boner you got from the billet pulley system that it was well worth the 72hrs to you...

All I have to say is...

There were 4 dudes that attended a sausage fest at Young Performance this past Saturday. One dude got a hard on. The rest including myself, Eddie, and Travis didnt...so that leaves TRL505. End of story... It was an awkward ride home...

I like to keep a low profile...but yet a quite cocky/dickhead internet repuation to make myself think I possibly could be a 165lb badass in real life...LOL

The 42 is 167mph fast. I don't use props and honestly don't even know what they are...
