Getting this thing pretty dang close to making passes. Can’t wait to put a Mopar in the mix with the LG 5.30 crowd. Shirts will be on the website soon.

Honoring those that made the ultimate sacrifice to protect our freedoms this Memorial Day weekend by enjoying those freedoms.

We have a passion for making beautiful Gen3 hemi parts, but most of you don’t know we have a passion for cooking. We compete in competition BBQ when not designing and making parts. Today I’m pressing the easy button and using the pellet smoker instead of a stick burner, but the result will be the same podium finish we are accustomed to.

We understand how to engineer race car parts. Pretty clean packaging for this Alt with room for forward facing headers if that’s the choice.

One more brake connection, a few brake line straps and this engine bay gets the engine tomorrow. Hopefully have fire real soon after.

Finishes need a bit of work and will be addressed, but here is the first gear drive assembly for a Gen3 hemi. Top gear works just like a locked out VVT phaser. No chain stretch, no broken tensioners. Up to 4 degrees of re**rd or advance and comes “pin” ready for the guys that want to pin the gear to the cam.

It’s going on an engine now (after bearing press) and get at functional fit. Then it’s heading off to get tested on a running engine.

We don’t just talk the talk here!

I committed early on to trying this car just how it came. Now that I’m getting close to taking out for the first time I’m interested to see what others think it will do and what improvements might be necessary. First off, we are going to make right around 725 hp na and have up to a 200 shot of nitrous available with a target of 5.25 in the 1/8th mile.

The car is light, a little over 2300 lbs (2500 with me in it). Transmission is a 1.69 low glide and it has a 5.00 rear gear with 28” tire. Any chances this is happy off the bat?

I’m not sure I could possibly make this any cleaner or simpler for hooking up your radiator. I’m pretty happy with how t...

What do we have here? Why yes, it's a VVT delete gear drive. Soon to be assembled and tested! Developing quality parts takes time and a pretty big financial commitment. We will push these out to the masses as soon as we get done testing to insure we only ship the best quality product.
