Total Engine Service here in Lubbock, TX. Casey Smyth did the assembly. It was a pita getting some things taken care of with the vendors, but he was really happy with it once it all came together. Got a bit more compression than we expected, but it should keep it burning nice and clean.

Love seeing unique (and very clean) builds like yours. What kind of power are you expecting?


Something in the range of 250 to the tires, we'll see. I'm modifying the longtube collectors to aid in scavenging better and keep the velocity up and changing exhaust design as well because the y-pipe merge the shop did was crappy.

Gonna do break in, do the idle and cruise tune then put it on the rollers at Total Engine Svc. since they're cutting me a deal on that.
