So your running it with the LS6 intake, did you have to rim the plate to fit the inlet? and pics of that how thick the plate is still? I would like to run a fast92 with that plate to, if its possible. I know the fast92 is bigger there so it might be to much cutting.

My bad. I didn't see a bypass hole for the waterpump in that motorplate and "assumed" it was a BB. Looks like an SB2 headed engine in your avatar or am I wrong again?

What castings are you using and who ported them? Those heads make serious N/A power.

do your headers clear the mid plate, what are you running for exhaust?


sounds like a nice setup, I don't see any power adder listed? You have the X275 out there right? a motor setup is competitive.
