Been a while since this was updated. With the goal to fit the motor under a factory steel bonnet, engine height was still a worry with the throttle bodies above the tunnel ram manifold, so there are now a couple of Plazmaman throttle bodies that have been mounted on a plenum "extension" on a common shaft.
Oh, and I just bought the Chevelle back, so now I am the proud owner of an unfinished project and a more powerful naturally aspirated motor than I ever thought in my wildest dreams that I would own. I am going to let the dust settle to decide what path to go down, but if you are genuinely interested in the possibility of buying this motor for your next insane project, let me know. I can see this engine in a GT40!
PS Leroy - this will NOT fit in the Arntz engine bay...
