Well, I'm finally going to let the cat of the bag and show off my one-off motor that I've been building. Special thanks to the TBU crew for inspiration and help from time to time. I couldn't have pulled it off without some of their help.

4.5 SVO block. Notice the billet stroker crank.

Notice the billet stroker crank, aluminum rods and special pistons.

Here's a shot of it all together with the 4.5 heads on.

Special intake with the Big Bore KB screw blower.

Here's a shot of the motor all together ready to be placed into the car.

Motor is in and running. I hope to break the 10's at the Shootout.

Duane, I can't believe you beat me to building one! Looks good. Can't wait to see it run ....you are going to run it, right?

Thanks everyone!

Yes, Mike, I felt bad about making this post because I knew you were in the process of putting one together but I just couldn't help myself. Maybe I could give you some pointers?

Yes, the car will be there and making full passes down the strip.

Duane's car make a pass down the strip? Did hell freeze over?

Might need some bigger tires than 225/55/17 Eagle LS or whatever was on the car last time I saw it.

Duane,

The black stealthy look is in these days, and may I say that it's a refreshing change from all the bling bling you had before.
