Very interesting things in those pics to a trained eye. I really like how you braced the intercooler tanks among other things. Very well thoughtout design, best of luck.

Nice, I'm glad to see a big dog blower, the turbos are getting boring.

It will be here a bit longer, still making parts I did not know I needed! Right now I am re-making part of a fuel filter that just does not work how I want it to! Still making the alt bracket also.

I want to know what the 4 stainless lines running from around each exhaust port are and where you are tying them together. I am assuming they are so that each hole has its own coolant path to help more evenly distribute the cooling load and keep the heads down. I want more info and a better pic and maybe some detailed info on where exactly you tapped into the head for circulation.

That is a water re direct I do on some high power builds. Helps keep the rods from bending I believe!

Why dont you send some heads to kurt and have him modify them? What he did works.

The fuel filter is done! It will be under the intake feeding the end of the rails on each bank. Ended up about 5 inches shorter than the y block and fittings it replaces.
Alt bracket is next, almost done!

Finally put the fuel filter and bracket in place so I could make the lines for a second time! I like the fit better now and my sensor for fuel pressure has a home now.
