    Thanks for the education. I play with 409's so this is new to me.

    I didn't see a blower or turbo inlet - SO what are the spring s and burst panel / door for ? Also what is the advantage to bushing the lifter bore down to use the y block lifters ? Wider foot so a more aggressive ramp / or take advantage of the cam profile you have ?
    Again impressive. :cool:
     
  10. You may have noticed the top plate on the intake is removable. The burst panel is for potential future supercharging – we can just swap out the top plate. And yes, the y-block lifters give a wider foot for more aggressive cam profiles.

    Blowers for everything. And I’ve never seen a case where it wasn’t for the better. I drove all the way across the country to get mine back IMG_2072.jpeg
