All that money and cheap scorpion rockers? Also the manifold looks like a edelbrock knock off correct? Looks pretty solid though. I love my quick fuel carb.

Scorpions are not that bad, I prefer harland Sharps or Crane .
yeah the intake is a hurricane intake, my Edelbrock super victor is going on before I do anything else.

It does look purty! I'd dyno it yourself to make sure he wasn't race gas and advancing timing on you. Nice looking motor though.

Speaking of scorpionnive had a set grenade on me. Be very weary. Check them often. They dont like alot of spring load. And i wouldnt go and just drop another intake. Aftermarket block and heads means the intake would have been cut to the new configuration. Angle of intake flange to china wall. Its all going to be machined to as one.

ill be taking it to a machine shop using the dyno. Ill ask the machinist what he thinks. the knock off is the same as my super victor intake..
these are the race series rocker btw
•Available in all ratios
•Lightweight for maximum performance
•Easily handle .950” lift and 950 lbs of open spring pressure
•Clear 1.625” valve springs
•Micropolished surfaces finish for maximum durability
•Anodized for additional protection and aesthetics
•Exclusive LIFETIME WARRANTY - all series
machine shop sez no worries, Scorpion had a bad rep earlier but have improved.
