Re: My new engine

I just got rid of a set of 18* heads and intake and the intake sure didnt look like that.... the heads/intake came off a old Katek ASA motor

Keep in mind also, english is not Robert's first language.

He has told me on the phone, typing isn't as easy as it is for us.

Re: My new engine

i'm pretty sure that is the new racing aluminum block that gm came out with last year. it's supposed to be stronger. as for it only taking about 750 horse i don't think that is correct. a friend of mine, dave henninger, built a new twin turbo for his camaro and used this block. he makes over 1500 horse with it. gm provided him with the motor and knows what he does so i can't believe they would have given it to him if it wouldn't take it.

if we try i'm sure i can find out what the intake is if anyone wants one. just let me know and i'll give you a phone number. i've never seen one like it though. i thought all the old asa motors all ran carbs?

by the way. "hi gerber and waller" how you guys doin?

Also interested in what the intake is.
I sent an email to GM Performance Parts yesterday, with the link of the the picture, and asked them what it was; said all I know is it's a V6 with 18deg. heads, and in Sweden. The response...

Thank you for your email.

By all appearances, it is an aftermarket unit.

GM does not produce anything like this.

Wish I could help.

Re: My new engine

I searched for any intakes like
that on the new 4.3 marine motors. But, can't find
anything that looks close to that.

Re: My new engine

intake looks like some of the stuff i have seen from the indy cars that were running V6s (usually splayed valve though).

Robert have bee weeeeeeeery secret about this... Yes I sipp coffe and do bencracing :D and solve´s worldly problemos with him and Sven, his handyman...

What he realy said to me, also showed some dokumentations about it.. is that this alu block is a GM racing manufactured in early -90 made only in 3 ex... and Robert got the nr# 3 the sorce and seller is a highly recomended RACING engine building corp... somwhere in US.. :D one of the seacrets... they claimes the block good for 1200 Hp :O

The color stripes in the end of block was a marking to what momentum is applyed on bolts and where.. no gay stripes hahaha

This is "mucho matcho stuff"

The heads is fully race ported 18 deg alu heads ported by the racing corp that sold him the block. AND did the beautiful intace to.. yes the racing company did develope this intake, and its a racing turbo intake. thats another secret no info on the intake more than you see on pic´s..
and its being laying on a shelf colecting dust for a while when the racing series that this parts was developet for, closed down these engines... I dont no what class or kind of racing thats inwolves these parts, sorry thats the third secret

How did Robert then find these artifacts?? whell he was "cruzing" around on the internet, and though he isnt the guru of keyboard and fairly on spelling english he manage to get thru in hes curiosity and whoila.. he found a tresure..

these parts you´ve seen on pics are on its way to sweden or already here :D

More fun to come... I know a lithle about the future, and times is in my favor, my son is getting older and more independent of having dad around all day so, MAYBEE next summer is going to bee real fast?? who knows??? :D

He´s been talking about a project thread later in the fall...
