Default Magnum /Dragonslayer Update

FYI, we have recently modified our Magnum / Dragonslayer 4340 forging to accommodate strokes as large as 4.600. The new forgings will go into production late September!

Bottom Line.....You will not need a billet for the tall deck!

*our latest LS billet photo attached, notice the BBC post and 8 counterweights

We definately are using callies for almost all of the tall deck builds and they are a normal upgrade in the standard deck short blocks that we do. Top notch stuff.

This thread probably would of kept me on track, however one problem that I ran into that hasn't been addressed yet and am interested in some feedback is concerning Exhaust manifolds. Due to the additional height that the heads will be, no aftermarket exhaust will fit on the blocks without clearance issues with the frame or what not. Do you know of anyone having made anything aftermarket wise for this block?

This is a thread I started back in March

a set of twins turbo manifolds should remedy the issue!
