COME Racing alloy engine (Holden V8 direct replacement)
With the bottom end virtually complete. Our attention turns to the top end. A pair of our off the shelf "600" Series alloy VN style heads were prepared with our usual 2.08" and 1.6" stainless steel intake and exhaust valves, dual flat tappet or hydraulic cam springs and moly retainers.
For all the Holden V8 tragics like us, we are currently building a 427ci (7 litre) version of our all alloy Holden V8 repalcement engine. The short block is assembled with our 4340 steel billet 4.00" stroke crankshaft and our billet 4340 steel 5.850" length "H" beam conrods.
You would be doing your early Holden, Street Rod or Commodore up to the VT model era a big favour by installing an engine like this one. These engines achieve excellent fuel economy, unparalleled throttle response and incredibly long engine life.
