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
Yes,I have to admit that the D5R's carb is harder to turn. It is because the 6.5mm intake let the usable range become shorter. I thought max 6.0mm intake fit for .12 outlaw engine. I'm testing a 5.4mm venturis for D5R/D3R 's carburetor. It let the engine more easy to adjust(more wide usable range) but less low end punch.

Just send some parts to ProjectZen. Call them directly.
