Whipple is on - teaser pics inside

The Whipple is on and we're ready to put some break-in miles on her..

We decided to hide the coil packs but haven't decided the final valve cover...for now it's just a little RHS 427 with a Whipple and Chevrolet covers...

Enjoy the pics!

Excellent choice on the block and S/C. Once broken in, you should easily ~700 RWHP. Now you need to work on suspension to put down to the ground.

Which heads did you go with? Also did you get the larger throttle body from Whipple?

Going to put some miles on it and then start the process on numbers. Limited in any event until I finish the fuel system.

Thanks - the builder and I decided that the 6-bolt head pattern was the way to go and after that the RHS was the best logical choice for me.

I think that's about all I can do until I finish the fuel system.

I'm waiting to hear if Fore releases their hat and then I'll add some pumps - I also have to make a 10-rib blower pulley and then we'll see how much we can push this combination.

I've got Pedders coil-overs and the BMR stuff already on the car. Although, I am not sure the Pedders will stay on - might be looking in another direction on the coil-overs.

Mast 12°, six-bolt -essentially an LS7 head with LS3 manifold pattern.
