Pic of the CF dipped valve cover inserts. I'll be using the MMR valver cover bolts so you can see the inserts better then you would with the stock VC bolts.
My first Build (10.5, Boosted, E-85)
- Thread starter SuperMach1
- Start date
Just dropped off the block to the builder last week. Finally things are moving along
Thump Tensioner came in today. I was gonna post a pic but dont know how. Looks like things have changed

keep up the great work man!
Damn, nice build man. Hydrodipped parts look great!
I have a very similar setup.works great.
A high compressoin auto with a centri? Can you tell me more about it? What fuel are you using?
Can you tell me your times on the 8psi before you popped? I just picked up a P1 Azure Mach
Also, what's the story on the '13 Boss rods? I must be out of the loop

It was a consistent 11.8, 11.9. My best time was 11.80 at 119mph with a 1.71 60ft. That was the same time it blew a ring.

Keep in mind my car was boosted for about 8 years and about 43,000 miles on the stock block. She put her work in.

Very good, thank you. I did 11.8@123 with 10psi on a Vortech and 12.0@119 with 8psi on an Eaton swap. I feel like this one may be just a tad slower than those cars but not by much. Can you tell me what pulley size you're on to net 8psi? Standard Procharger inlet or Power Pipe?
I think its a 3.8 pulley. And I added a custom 4 inch powerpipe after the tune. i'm not to sure of it gained any boost. I never look at my boost gauge when i'm racing.

Just got a call from the builder. The short block has been bored, honed, assembled, and balanced. He was also able to save the crank.
Going to switch to a 3 bolt timing cover due to hearing about belt problems with the single bolt tensioner. Does anyone know if I need a different ProCharger bracket for the different timing cover?
Update:
Sent the top end to the builder on Thursday.
Switched to a 3 bolt timing cover.
Coated top of pistons.
New EMP water pump.
Also bought some unecessary parts. Carbon fiber radiator cover & 17in RaceStars :banana:

looks good so far man
Awesome! I plan to do something similar!
awesome build! Also curious about the boss rods
Supposedly the boss rods are forged and can handle up to 800hp and 7,400 rpm. Also they are really cheap. I got a set for $175 and they come with rod bolts.
Painted the lettering on the COP covers. Came out decent
