Dave Visner called me over yesterday to go over the final touches on the intake, throttle bodies and valve covers. The throttle body openings are 4" each to match the 4" plumbing for the turbos. He has designed the linkage to run under the intake just above the valley pan so everything is concealed. He is also creating a billet water cross over and thermostat housing. The heads have a dual cooling chambers - front and back. We will tie the two cooling systems together under the intake.

In order to keep the look and milling consistent, Visner made custom risers and valve covers out of a single piece of billet.

We decided on dual fuel rails with two separate stages of injectors to support both a smooth idle and higher fuel demands once we apply boost.

We will powder coat or anodize the intake, throttle bodies and valve covers. The plumbing will be powder coated black as well. The heads will stay aluminum and the block and oil pan will be black. We are making a 9" x 3" raised letter plate that will be inlayed into the center of the valve covers. The letters will be brushed aluminum with a black background.

Any suggestions on what we should put on the name plate?

Dave, here’s to you man – Bad A$$!
