Resin Engine


Recommended Posts

Has anyone purchased a VCG Resin 572 and assembled it ? 

If so I would like to know what position the heads are assembled to the block ? Do you center them to the block or make them flush to the front of the block or the rear ? 

Reason I ask is that the heads are longer then what the block is which they should be the same length.

Thank You

Here's a video pan-around of that engine built up; maybe that will help you.

Remember also than on any conventional V-8 engine, one cylinder head is ALWAYS farther forward than the other one. On the big-block Chevy, which this is, the head farthest forward is the LH, driver's side.    GM_cyln_1357.gif
