That's why I have kids and a wife. They can teach this old guy how to do stuff like this.

I believe these are the hemi heads. They were busy when I was in their pit area, so I didn't get a lot of info.

Check out those merge collectors. Look to be necked down pretty tight flared back out and necked down again. Cool. I'd like to have the money thats in those -16 or -20 fittings for the water pump and return lines.
Thanks for posting,

Probably qualify #1 if they'd put the other 4 plugs in.

Did you notice how they are routing the water to the heads? Very interesting how it's being done. I understand there is quite a bit of horsepower to be gained this way. Very

Those are the Hemi heads, the wedge got nixed by the NHRA from what I have heard.

Travis, I'd bet they have some of those electrically operated cut-outs under there somewhere, I've seen in Jegs and Summit catalogs!

They might be Jegs brand but I would bet that they are copycats of the real deal ................. J.C.Whitney . One of the real reasons that I commented on the merge collectors and the design they are using is that I've never seen them necked down at the outlet as well. I am not 100% sure but it looks to me like the intake may be a dry deal with no water crossover hence the routing back to the radiator from the front of the heads. It's definatley a work of art for sure.

the dry intakes have been around for years, even in 1969 nascar boss 429s were dry intakes,and in the 70s the ran water from the heads in prostock,not the intake
