Prob in late april ? I am now trying to match up the intake with the heads :( .Things are coming together. I have been taking picks of every thing along the way..Its going slower than I predicted . i am probaly being too anal about the little things .

Looks like World products make the Intake for Whipple . I have been cutting all week on heads and intake .

Like Richie Zul told me the other day I sould of bought some heads and would be allready done . But whats time to a monkey :drink: I will next time :eek:

I like the dual inter-cooler picture from above. Do you have rights to the design? I can't imagine the amount of time you have in the heads. I was real happy with the Dart 308 Heads.

When its all done, You will be happy with the results. I really like the look of the Whipple. Second only to a roots blower in looks, probably better in performance & reliability. No scoop needed which is a plus.

Keep the pictures coming, and if you have any spare time make a few posts in the other section.

You were right, The ECU will need adjustment. I sent them to Mark today. If I could set the idle up to 900RPM it might of cleared up.

It ran but the transom was pretty black. Oh well. I was planning on doing that anyway. I just needed to experiment.

Mark will take care of you. how did it run? Linnie Where you able to get a chance to dyno it ? bump the rev limit up also while your at it .Zing zing :drink:


Bob for what I spent on the heads replacing all the parts in them and the machine work I bet I was real close to the Alum heads :(

I had the machine shop ck all the clearance's on the crank and mains , and the new rods come on the tight side so we put them in the middle of spec .

I started out plastic gauging it and it was not coming out right . Don't know why. But I bought a new Dial bore gage . I already had the snap gages and Mic's. So I could make sure everything was good on the bottom end . The rods came up to .0027- .0032 One crank was on the small side so I had to play around with the different bearings on that one .

The crank came out to .003 and .0035 rear.Everything on the bottom end went together good :D
