the head was hand ported at victory engines in cleveland

i will be doing some cooling mods.probably dual pass w opt b and meth inj.i like the hatrickstu mod but id make it all out of stainless tubing w a ss resavior. im also workin on making a co2 bar for the intake mani not sure if it will be beneficial yet or not but worth a try i fiugre.

the pistons are 9.5:1

yeah, i would prefer a stainless or color matched powdercoated tank, but are SS lines would be kind of a hassle to work with wouldn't they?

co2 bar INSIDE the intake manifold? that would be interesting....

yea ss lines wouldnt be the easiest thing but im a cryogenic pipefitter and am pretty good at bending pipe so i think ill be able to make it fit.
actually diddnt think 2 put it inside the mani but thats not a bad idea ill see what i can do .i already have a couple ideas how it could be done

ls1fbody

well, since you're a pipe bender, i'll be watching your metal "hatrickstu" mod haha, might need you to meake me a kit, seeing how it works out.

i don't know how much your engine would like co2 being injected into it...

my wnot throw a co2 bar on the front H/E if/when you get one?

if everything works out with the routing of the tubing i am more than willing to make mor for whoever may want one. i already have the routing figured out once the motors back in the car i will start bending.
ya prob wouldnt like the co2 inj. my original plan was to make aco2 manifold that would be mounted on the outside of the intake mani.about 3/4" off sprayin at th mani. think it would help any?

ls1fbody

it might, but not much, the intake mani isn't exactly thin, and although it may make a difference, i just don't see it making a lot. then again, i would have to know the flow route inside the IM and although i've seen pictures, i would need to see it in person, or see a diagram cut-away to know for sure.

well the motors still not back in the car. i have been working in houston for the last month and havent had any time to work on it.my transmission needs some work still. i broke a few teeth on the ring gear ,bearings are shot,mainshaft and 1st gear also no good. so my dad took apart my back up tranny and the parts i need out of it are ok.
im going back out of town tomorow again for work. only gone for the week so hopefully when i get back my tranny will b ready and i can start dropping it back in.
