Boris,

I do love some 180° headers.. It'd be nicer if americans just made flat plane v8's.. but then theyd lose the american rumble so..

How far along are you in this build? Or is this the most recent update? How long have you been at it, and what are you using for a powerblock/trans?

What engine is that? Evenly spaced ports, canted valves? Didn't know Edelbrock made Clevland valve covers?

yep it is a windsor stroker with cleveland heads had to make the manifold to suit and the alloy covers come blank have to weld you own oil filler on
