    Project Black Hole(SRT4 FWD) has begun for Raven! We decided to do the same engine going into the DCR 4 Banger Nova which is the DCR 2.8 Liter Big Block:sly:. Now this is just setup is for drag racing only as the blocks are hard filled for the 3.545 bore .100 thou. oversize bores. This is combined with our stroker crank to achieve the DCR 2.8 Liter:thumb: . Coolant is just ran thru the cylinder head! This will be combined with the DCR Auto Trans. We will be running on straight meth for fuel and using the Waterman crank driven via belt Fuel Pump, (8) 1600cc injectors and no with intercooler needed. AEM EMS will be in control of the whole setup and we will be using a PT72mm Precision Turbo combined with the DCR ProSeries Turbo Kit. This will also be the DCR Avenger Head Swap with Custom DCR Crane Cams.:thumb:

    Stay tuned for pics and updates.

    Thanks, Nubs @ DCR

    Ok I have to ask how much does a set up like this cost? I take it a arm and a leg?
