You're aluminator shortblock??

[Turbosnake281]

calling all aluminator shortblock owners! I would like to know what power adders you are running at what power levels and what compression option did you choose. are you happy with it?, would you of wished you had gone a different route? how are they holding up and how many miles have you punished on them?:burnout:

Bought my 8.5:1 aluminator in 08, currently has about 8k miles on it running a Whipple 2.3 at 18psi. Makes 604/562 on a Lund Racing Dyno tune.

At the time I was stuck between waiting 4 months for a short block by a local engine builder but I was in a rush to get everything done so I bought the Aluminator instead. In hindsight, I do wish I waited as my engine builder would've built something even more stout. If/when I decide to pull the motor for a refresh, I'm sending it to Tim Eichorn of MPR Race Engines to work his magic. He's local to us as well.

I would also like to hear more feedback on the alumiinator as well. I heard a lot of negativity when they first came out and was wondering if any problems have been fixed. Isn't the longblock somewhere around 6500$ ?

Bump, I have a buddy with a 2011 that is wondering about the 5.0 version of the aluminator, his setup is a big whipple, very similar setup to the grabber blue car from lethal.

Bump
