The Cammer's finally alive and running well the dyno power runs showed the power keeps coming on over 8000rpm. Very good result after all the hurtles we hit finishing this engine.

Very impressive finish LJ! Your build path was tougher than the average and you battled all the demons into a victory for yourself. That is tough beyond words congratulations on your victory, your vision and the final product it all wrought.
Depending on your cams, I suspect you will find increasing power well beyond 8000 rpm as long as you can keep feeding it fuel.
Way cool build, awesome battle, stunning victory. You earned it all!

Thanks guys for your support it has been a long journey. The engine has a split personality under 3500rpm its a cruiser well behaved and civilised above that she wakes up and scares the neighbours.
Finished engine bay

LJ, is the third windshield wiper a regulatory requirement or is it a modification you elected to add. If it is a modification you added can you offer some hints on where to get the pieces?
Thx,
Ed

Yes Ed the windshield wiper is a regulatory requirement and all Australian delivered Superformance cars have them fitted at the factory. Maybe speak to Dave at Hillbank for more information.
