Arias Hemi head LSX

this raises the cool bar for engine looks...not sure about performance.

Thats an awesome looking valvetrain.

Any dyno sheets? Im guessing dollar for dollar, its not worth the investment power wise. However a hood-less street rod might beifit because the LS engines are'nt very attractive.

$9975.00 for a set...

suddenly the coil on plug isn't as ugly as I once thought.

RIght Rene' not to mention the pistons/ and some block work to accomodate them....Strictly a wow factor I guess...LSX engines can make some ungodly hp.

Wow, but I like the SB2 engine in the background too
