Yeah you are definitely running some high tech parts on the trucks.... I can only imagine the fun those are....

Thanks. And yeah for personal use it is way over built lol. The teams and my set up guy in Mooresville NC are always like you know you don’t need all the bling and to build them like this lol. But I like unique well built stuff. I want it to stand out. As for driving them. They are unbelievably fast on a road course. They will devour a Porsche Cup Car etc. it’s all about throttle discipline. I run the original TRD Phase 14 Toyota Nascar Motor’s. Mine make around 700 with a few tricks but still using the small 390cm carb from original spec. Now they run spec engine with fuel injection. The motors are a piece of art in itself. $65,000 new smh. I get them second hand and nowhere that money. I send them out to Triad for inspection. Correct gearing and they last a long time.

The ERL custom long block with the AllPro heads and Jesel valve train.... The structural girdle added to the bottom of the aluminum block to increase rigidity... This block is also half filled. Fitting and assembling everything prior to motor installation.... This motor is mounted like I'm guessing your race motors are, with motor plates. The bell housing is spun steel and SFI approved... The Bill Dailey 7 stage dry sump system. As mentioned before, we spin this motor to 9000 rpm, which is why we had to go dry sump.... Continued assembly and fitting of all the components... Those are two inch ID pipes on the turbo manifolds... They are ceramic coated inside and out.... Not factory pretty but very functional... The completed custom intake manifold... There is some amazing proprietary stuff going on inside that manifold.... The final product fully installed and running... This is the first start up of the new motor when it was installed..... Yes, I had to excuse myself for a few minutes.... lmao....
