Re: Sov13t’s Engine and Supercharger Build
Very slick.
What are the holes for in the webbing of the intake manifold? they look like just open holes to the underside... any trick to the placement, or purpose? looking very good, and extremely clean.

Re: Sov13t’s Engine and Supercharger Build
OT, good work. Very nice, shiny.
Clean up the background, have this beauty with some nice background scenery pictures. post them on the 2010 calendar thread, it might make it to one of the drag racing calendar month in 2010.

Re: Sov13t’s Engine and Supercharger Build
Love that engine!!! I wonder why??
OT, here's a thought: How about an engine block that clean and shinny (without manifold) as an GREAT "coffee table". Now that would be unique, to say the least!!!! And keep in mind that this particular engine is ONLY in the SVX!! Another "side-line" for you OT????? Harry

Re: Sov13t’s Engine and Supercharger Build
I was going to say that as soon as I saw the black plastic breathers painted on the valve covers. Looks pretty good overall, not sure what to make of the manifold though...

The manifold and stacks were ceramic coated for better thermal properties... same reason why the holes are there. Intake temperatures are going to be important for us. |

Yes, Grasshopper, as the intake charge temps go down, the tire temps go WAY, WAY UP!!!!!

SVXi had both black plastic and aluminum valve cover breathers. As to the Ceramic coated intake manifold and stacks, SHINEY, PRETTY!
