Out with the 440 in with the 540

[DR440]

Been a long time since I have been here since I first joined to pick a few brains of you guys in the good old US of A. I'm here in the land down under

Long story short built a new heart for the beast. Out went the old 440 and in went the new 540 with a six pack on top. 550hp at the flywheel and 690 ft lbs of torque. Got to say I'm loving it :glasses10:

The pipes shown here were only for running the motor in on the jig/dyno

Who made your exhaust and what coating did you use?

Thanks lads. :icon_smile:

....... Who made your exhaust and what coating did you use?

The pipes were done by Liverpool Exhaust here near Sydney. They are ceramic coated.

[hunt2elk]

Great looking car. What is the sizing of your rear tires and wheels?

 

[Brandy]

Love it! I really like the exhaust color. That's an idea I will keep for later when I get to that stage. Very impressive! Enjoy!

 

[Wookie316]

Are those the Indy EZ heads? I am guessing because you are running a 6 pack manifold that's what you had to use? Are they out of the box or was any work done to them?
Who's roller cam or is it custom?
Any idea what your compression ratio is?
Great ride.
