As of last week the final hone was taking place on my motor and they had ordered the final head gasket set... We'll probably order a couple of extra sets just in case... Keep them in stock for my car... Corey has been working wit Ben Lozano to spec and order my dry sump system... Bill Dailey system...

Hopefully this is the final rendition and the test fit goes well... This is one side of the base flange and velocity stacks for our custom intake manifold.
We will be running the short intake runners and a very large plenum, which is ideal for very high RPM's. We are thinking initially of 8000-8100 rpm shift points but can spin the motor quite a bit higher if needed at the big end of a track... Just the RPM increase will provide quite a bit more power...

.... Sigh....
Still waiting on word of the motor and when it will be finished and shipped... I'm leaving tomorrow for work here in the gulf... Hoping for five to six weeks out there... I was requested back by Exxonmobil so that's a good thing... It isn't a rotation yet but my company is hoping I'll get that set up and finalized... Me too...

So, the latest is they are still waiting on the custom pushrods... Never realized a tube took so long to make... and this week is PRI, so, apparently everyone in any capacity of manufacturing is there, and so it'll be next week or the week after that before any major move happens... At this rate, I'm hoping to run the mile in March of 2016...
I have to say Corey is getting creative in his weekly update notes to ERL... I know good takes time, and great takes lots of time, but damn....
