Not too shabby, with pushrod tubes that you just about can't get away from on the Olds

Look at the bottom of this T-stat. See the large spring-loaded disc? This is a block pressure blow off valve. Interesting, no?

Yessss... keeping the injector duty cycle on the lower side, as it just *might* be fed some methanol at some point, and / or some "dry nitrous" where the additional fuel for the N2o will be provided by the existing fuel injectors.

Hmmm, looky there - now my guy Andrew's recommendation of the 220 lb hr injectors aren't that far off on E85 usage.

Final finished design testing behind different timing chain sets to ensure proper clearances all proved out perfectly.

Here is the finished design installed. The master plate was CNC patterned, machined, and test fit perfectly!

With the 403 having the revised oil gallery plug locations raised up higher, I was very pleased to see that everything still cleared every type of timing chain tested.

Here is the prototype master plate test fit, making certain that it centers properly across the face of the camshaft, the oil gallery plugs, and provided the exacting amount of camshaft thrust end play.

All of the tooling used to cut up and reconfigure the 403 only plate design. It took a few days, but I finally nailed it just right.

Here is the original handmade prototype 403 plate. I took the original design at the bottom of the picture, cut it all up, then silver soldered it all back together in the revised pattern needed to create a master plate.

Here is the plate installed behind a Cloyes double roller timing chain set. What's interesting in this image is that I have also installed a typical camshaft thrust button that most everybody is accustomed to for visual reference. While you can also run this old school camshaft thrust button in conjunction with the camshaft thrust plate, there is no reason for it at all and I actually recommend against using the thrust button.

Here is the plate installed using the standard factory oil gallery plugs. I have designed this plate to specifically use the original oil gallery plugs. There is no need to scavenge around for any possibly longer plugs.

This is the backside of the plate that mounts to the engine block and controls the forward most end of the camshafts front timing chain gear mounting flange.

This item is beautifully CNC machined out of a billet C93200 Bearing Grade Bronze - twice as tough as the original GM mild steel plate was when I Rockwell tested it for hardness.

Nothing going on here, just a stock(ish) Olds, right?

Twin engine oil filters with a large oil cooler + 8 quart oil pan = 11 quart oil change (!) The third filter is an additional transmission filter, plumbed into an auxiliary liquid to air cooler after the fluid leaves the initial cooler in the radiator.

FRONT VIEW from underneath. The 8 quart oil pan only hangs down below the chassis just under an inch. Still have to be mindful of anything in the road of course, but nowhere near enough to worry about bouncing over any speed bumps or having to panic nearing any railroad tracks. Currently running ported Thornton Junior W31 type exhaust manifolds, which seem to be flowing exceptionally well.

REAR VIEW from underneath. I have put enough heat through the exhaust system with foot to the floor high speed runs to almost turn the tailpipes color now (like the headpipes have). Once the 540 goes in, the pipes will definitely be darkened all the way throughout, that's for sure. I have purposely kept the top side of the car looking as stock as possible :)

This correlates with the data on the GtechPro rather closely.
