Looks like the first 2 of these engines will go to Australia.

Thank you to everyone who has contacted us so far. The response to this has been overwhelming! Looking forward to working with those that choose this package for their power plant.

Gleaning from the Facebook page it looks like an Arias block, Mopar head & Engler injection; what is it about this combination that's so revolutionary?

The attempt here, is to determine if there is enough interest in something new to pursue a project like this.
Yes, Arias block, NO to the Mopar head. Using instead a head designed for the LS Chevy and Engler injection.

Thanks, I thought I'd seen reference to Mopar, but everything on your Facebook page is in "sound bites". Maybe you'd get a better sense of the interest level if you put out more specific information, instead of little "teases". Not trying to be critical, but what you've posted so far hasn't been that descriptive regarding configuration, cost, power output, etc. you've said that all the above can be tailored to the individual but again, nothing definitive. Is it cheaper than an Esslinger? More expensive than an Ecotec? Where does it fit in the overall scheme of things?

Thank you Jim,
This is some of what I've been waiting for...discussion... I have had a LOT of emails/phone calls. The head desired here, is capable of ridiculous #'s (flow/torque/HP) at this point an estimate is all that can be discussed. Which is in the 400++ toward 450 HP is possible at 162 CID.
Cost is in the 28-30k range.
Shoot an email or call and have a chat.I love the subject.
