This picture is what's on the line bore table at the moment. Ford 8BA block that's getting a five main bearing crankshaft. The next engine for our very fast vintage engine powered land speed race car. Hoping to get near 250 MPH with our 292 cubic inch combination.
What your looking at is a lot of hand made one off pieces using the Bridgeport mill, Southbend lath and Drill press. Oh and a whole lot of hours also.
