The head is all done and runs very strong. Right now I;m using the head on my hill climb car.
I have been working on my 30 pickup that was a real barn find, from a friend in Mich.
What about a crank from one of the 2liter turbo engines from GM or VW? I don't know the cost or alignment issues but I'd assume it can handle the power as they are producing 135hp per liter.
