Thanks. I really admire the engineering that went into some of these parts. It will be a few weeks. We have a newborn now and my dissertation is keeping me busy, but I'm putting time into the project whenever I can.

Valve cover clearance
May need to grind alternator bracket a little.

The Comp Billet valve covers clear the rockers just fine. I should hope so....they look tall when mocked on the heads! Probably less gargantuan when mounted in the engine bay. https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.cor...1fd655f9c.jpeg https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.cor...5d82d3505.jpeg https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.cor...44489222d.jpeg |
Josh were your old heads 6 bolt? I was curious on the headers getting them in and out or removing the heads that the 4 bolts on the bottom make it a little more difficult to do those types of things. If anyone lese knows chime in.

Josh,
This is coming along nicely! Your painstaking attention to detail will pay off huge! #HighRamMafia |

Those valve covers are tits. $600.00 later, I may go for a set after I get this new house remodeled......I'm wondering if you can get them with some different graphics?

There are flashier ones out there but these ones make form follow function.

Well it's a Katech red pump, high pressure high scavenge. ZR1s use squirters just fine with a factory oil pump, and the katech is even higher pressure.
Also, the squirters alone use check valves in their bodies that shut off the squirter below 45psi. So with that knowledge, no, I'm not really concerned but I'll obviously keep my eye on it. |

I believe that the Katech and the stock LS9 squirters use the same check ball design (same components too?), and are regulated to the same oil pressure. I am running the Katech squirters on my ERL sleeved LSA block.
