who makes those head studds ?

 

They look like ARP 1/2"ers

 

definatly ARP 1/2" studs... machine work just to have those done down here was CRAZY expensive...

 

Not sure just yet, I have a # in my head I want to see but I do not get there no biggie, I just like building this stuff and working on slightyly different pieces of the puzzle.

ARP


nope

nope
naw it was not bad; pretty easy to do. would not recommend on an aluminum block, and this is just a wild hair we wanted to do to keep the heads down. Again this is a buget build so we are trying to keep things in real.

Infact need to swing by the machine shop and see how things are going. Most where already tapped last week.

 

Big Block studs?

 

Studs are 9/16 and the length matches the stocker stuff. So far the block is bored, and all the threads are in the deck. So its coming around. The heads need a little clean up stuff and grinding, and have to drill the holes OUT just a nats *** to get over the new studs. Hope to have the long block together in a few weeks.

 

sounds like fun. what kind of "budget" are we talking though?

 

Sounds like a government "budget" build to me...

What's next, a TVS2300 on a custom bilit intake with 2 T76's feeding it with a "small" 200 shot?

 

there ya go but make it twin tvs 2300's with twin t88's with 4" dp's and 4" exhaust

 

are you planning to build just an intake base out of that chunk of material?
