That pump mod sounds really interesting. Also, the gasket pic is super helpful. Thanks OST.

Re: 7AG Block, Is there a best?

Re: Cross Plane 4AGE
This is an incredible idea. From a tuner’s perspective, as long as I could set base timing, firing order, and base firing event in degrees of crank rotation I don’t believe there would be an issue running a COP setup for this cross-plane engine.
