Impressive build! List of suppliers? That’s a 3.8L SC? Case doesn’t look any larger than the 2.9L

That looks awesome, curious to see what it makes. What's the intended power target?

Who did the flywheel, and is it SFI rated? Can't wait to see this thing in action!

When you say lifting heads with to much boost....how much was that.?
Love that front inter cooler. Might pull my ac out and configure something like that.

AC condensor is still in working order; no need to remove.. The H/E is a custom Bell Intercooler unit.

Head lifted because datalogs show I was pushing 31lbs/boost. Block is sleeved, I was using a Cometic fire ring gasket with ARP studs and it still lifted; therefore, a billet stepped block is the cure.

Wow 31psi on 10.1 compression !!
Also looks like the front bumper crash bar is modded or removed all together ??
