Hi all we are at the SEMA show in Las Vegas. This place is wild!

This is an L24 with a twincam head!

I think we need a ruling from a moderator. Is this engine porn?

Dang Alvin I wish I would have known you were going I would have met up with you! I took a bunch of pics of that engine as well!! Super rare and worth around $50K!! The show was amazing and it looks like Rota is going to sponsor my 67 race car and provide me with some wheels. I am going to see if they will put my race car in their booth next year as well. Looks like I need to get moving on finishing it!! I will be posting a slide show of some of my favorite pics from the show on my website as well as a slideshow of all the SEMA models!! Here are a couple of my favs. The Carmen Gia was incredible!!

Very sexy stuff indeed! Anyone know what the function is of that pipe/tubing above the headers, best seen in pic 3?

It is in fact a cooling pipe that they fabbed. I spoke to the guys in the booth for quite some time and spent most of it drooling over the engine!
