slipped in a win today with my D5R and it was for the first timeat a low temp... came off one heat at 165
41 laps...leaned it a little got 42 laps in the main... came in at 195
It has taken me 2 months but finally ...besides for one port that didnt match up well.. and being rather hard to tune
.. or finding what it wants???I give this engine..
B+
When is the next production of small block engines going to be?
Also I need a rod and or another D5R or d3r maybe .
any ideas on these?
Guess I run on enough

Am I missing something here?

Yeah, Preston of ProjectZen is a dude, have a chat and I'm sure he will sort you out with what you want!
Dino, I'm sitting here with a worn connecting rod from my old JP RS12 motor and a spare rod for my d5r motor, dimensionally they look the same and my vernier verifies this. are they interchangeable?
These cnc sts rods look like jewelry and it weighs less than my old JP rod, I guess if it fits it would be a little hop-up for my JP motor.
Cheers
