WOW, over 120 views and no comments, didnt think the pushrod guys would take it so personally.

I mean pushrod motors are ancient technology and had to be replaced someday...

 

nice vid. i didnt take it so personal whatsoever

 

That is sick, wonder what that gem will cost?

 

from what i can find, it looks like pushrods are actually newer than over head cams

first pushrod engines 1949

first overhead cam engines 1920s

NRE is awesome, and always continues to push the bar when it comes to high power driveable engines!

cant wait to see what the cylinder head design looks like

 

This exactly why I cringe and laugh at most automotive magazine writers, they always mention how pushrods are so antiquated. They do no research and they are talking right out of their collective ^%%es. Which unfortunately is directly attached to their heads.

 

X2. Research always lowers ones chance of looking stupid. NRE rocks though.

 

that is gonna be one bad *****.

 

I really can't wait to see/hear videos of this thing running. Really interested to hear what it sounds like...

Very cool, thanks for posting the link.
