You guys ******* rock!!! Whats the cost of a 427 or 434 LSX ShortBlock from you guys??? I just got a quote from a local guy in town on a 427 for 5500 an 6500 for a 454 with a 90 Day warranty! I was just curious because i'm wanting to go bigger cubic inch before i decide on which power adder i would like to run. I have Ls3 heads still though so i'm gonna sell those with the motor along with the camshaft an then take out a small loan to match the cash from my old build FYI only has 5800 miles on the whole set-up! Runs awesome made 527-475 through a M6 an 12-bolt.

how well does the intake work on the engine right before the crankshaft pics. reminds of of lateral pointing webbers. Lots top end power, loss of torque?

I love the Marcella manifold with the two side pointing mounts. Looks like something for a 572 BB with twin turbos.
