For those not familiar with Jon Kaase's work, you're in for a treat. Jon's Boss9 is probably a good place to start if you're interested. Anyway he won this competition with something you've probably never seen... split headers on a V8. That's 16 pipes, two per exhaust port. Can you say engine porn? Geek out on all the glorious details !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! .

I guess you should read the article my Sicilian arachnoid friend. It's an engine builders competition, packaging /weight is probably not it's strong point but efficiency is the whole point.

Yep. I never said this was a Boss9. I said if you are interested in more of his work you should take a look at the Boss9.

As you mentioned, this is a 409 ci mod motor, 4 valve. This is the first year new rules allow 4 valves per cylinder. 400 ci is the minimum size to enter the competition.

A brilliant bit of engineering when your competition is all about dyno numbers, but it's heavy, bulky and not terribly practical for an on-verhicle application

I'll bet that, with the right setup, what it sounds like is a chorus of angels gargling rockets.

Sure... it's engine porn man, you're just supposed to appreciate it for what it is.

It must be pure auditory ear sex fun happy time. I think those modular motors are great sounding to begin with.

I have been accused of being TOO practical ;)

Not as familiar with Sonny. A Kaase pump gas motor for a 60s Ford resto-mod is kinda my dream setup.

yea, i looked at getting a set of kaase heads for my truck, until i saw the price...i'll stick with junkyard bits until one of my million dollar ideas pays off...

I like it. It looks well done.
Got sound of it running?

I did read it. No need for a condescending reply, thanks

I didn't see any video. I was so hoping for it.

There's a lot of goofy stuff that goes on at Engine Master's that would never fit or work in a car. These are basically just built to go on a dyno.
