Hehehehe, now look at all that work ya gotta do to make em look half way reasonable.

Now these other things...the modern recycled beer can versions look good outta the box. Not only do they look good but they perform just as well.

My comments were aimed towards the variety of flavours one can have with these modern engines. ...look at the range. From 5.3, 6.0, 6.2,7.0 liters and now supercharged as well. All outta the box. It's a bit like owning an ice cream parlor. If you only sold vanilla and across the road another shop sold all flavors then he is likely to get more bizness than you.

Like uncle Mike, I may well resort to those 4 barrel throttle bodies but the thing is...I don't havta do it to make it look good or perform. . Not only do they look gorgeous but they have the cubes which can't be matched by the competition. ( If they really do have any competition that is)

I note on another thread pics from a Melbourne based Daytona factory wherein the engines being installed in said daytona's look suspiciously like a big brother version of mine.

Progress marches on......
