Anyone know if the Mercruiser shop floor assembly manuals are available anywhere? Getting our hands on the CNC code for the heads and intake runners would be cool. Could possibly modify for CNC porting!

Another good article:
http://www.popularmechanics.com/cars...-wisconsin-v8/ "Back in 1990, a Corvette cost $31,979 and the ZR-1 option added another $27,016. What that bought you, mostly, was the most fearsome engine ever bolted into an American car. Instead of the pushrod, two-valve heads used in the standard Corvette engine (and every other Corvette engine before and since), the ZR-1 had a 5.7-liter V-8 with quad overhead cams and four valves per cylinder. This allowed it to rev high and breathe deeply, spinning out 375 horsepower back when a Ferrari 348 TS made only 300. A friend who was reviewing cars at the time managed to wreck a ZR-1 so violently that the car broke in half. When the GM people showed up, he said, they only cared about the half with the engine." Also, watch the video and crank up the volume! |
