The bell housings and trannies from the big motors will be moved over to the new motors. The trannies were just redone at BAM and are stronger and shift a lot better.

The Dry-sump oil system has been removed and the headers are off the big motors. The oil system will be sold off. Maybe it will go with the big motors if necessary.

So much money in high-end parts, and so much work just to tear everything down, put it for sale, sell it, box it all up and ship it out! My motors went to Australia, my drives went to The Netherlands..........hopefully you find a buyer nearby! Will your headers work on your new 700s, or did you purchase them with headers?

The headers for 700SCI's are the same as 525EFI's so his current headers will not directly bolt up, at least not without mods to the heads or headers.

I bought them complete. Yes, all the stuff coming out will hopefully get sold. The right person should take all of it. Including the Brand New 6 drives I have for sale.

No, the dry sumps are going. The headers may stay or go.

Different silver but it was also a time thing as these were available when I needed them.
