Siamesed and dropped plenum on the bay
Is it worth the money. Seems crazy to me.

I'm pretty sure that's Kurt White's 415 (Limey).

Re: Siamesed and dropped plenum on the bay
Marc Haibeck did two 368 cars at the same time. One had a stock plenum, the other a siamese. He got 15 hp more from the siamesed one. The exhausts were also a little different, but I know he believes the siamese one does add at least 10 hp....
To me, that is a whole lotta dough for 10 HP. Looks pretty amazing though.....

Re: Siamesed and dropped plenum on the bay
This came off of the 415 that BK did for me back in the day.
One thing Bill did do decent was the head work and big valves, which these are and the dropped siamesed plenum. The Plenum dropped about 6 years ago was over $7000.00 and the heads, well damn you could'nt duplicate them for half what i'm asking. That aside, these are ideal for a top running 415 if that's what you want. Anyone buys the heads and dropped plenum, i'll throw in the 415 block @ N/C that's got to be a $5k + incentive to duplicate. You can then buy the crank from GTBZR1 and be over halfway to a 415. |

Re: Siamesed and dropped plenum on the bay
Mine was done way after limey's. I have ( had ) just the siamesed from BK. It was pricey, as with BK's later work I had to have GVD fix it. The price on the plenum is about what I have into mine, without the drop.
How he every thought this would work.......... |
