For those of you not aware, the engine in my #FairmontProject has a name, #DarkMatterPikachu. Here’s how it got that name.
This is another video in the Engine Series for the #FairmontProject. In this installment we talk about the engine block I got from World Products, the Man o War. It’s a vast improvement over the stock 302 block and should handle the boost I plan to put to it.
There are so many great things about this block. Even after it wears out in it’s current build, I’ll have plenty to machine out to start over and make it bigger and badder than before. In summary, this is a killer engine block as you’ll see in the video.
