They ran it in WTAC 2015. I heard on 630 ish whp. Not sure though.
They are still testing as far as I know. Still not taking orders till they are completely sure. However it ran fine during WTAC.

If you're milling a billet block, then you're essentially milling a completely custom block/engine. With that in mind, I can't quite see why you wouldn't increase the deck height by say, 20mm, and run 150.5mm rods. You can already run the bores out to 103mmish without issue IIRC.
This gives you almost 2.8L with a 1.81 rod ratio. Ok so you'd have to get a custom length timing belt and rods made but if you're at this level those costs are trivial. Why people try to strengthen a crappy design/geometry when they have this kind of budget is beyond me. It is turd polishing of the highest order. |

They did ad some features. The only real strengths I see are the stronger parent material and the added main bolts. I'm assuming they also added some material down near the main/sleeve web for the added stability to the sleeves. I know that up at 1000+ whp they were seeing degradation of the cast/closed deck blocks. I'd be hoping to see some tweaks in the G-code for some knock-sensor pads on each cylinder... ...but I don't have the money for it, so I'm just gonna sit here with my popcorn |

They also added material around the head studs so you can run bigger than 1/2 and actually work better

I really fail to see how it's at all difficult to just add 20mm to the deck height and change nothing else. All you need to do further is get a belt with a few extra teeth and some custom rods that really aren't all that custom. There seems to be little to it.

You'd need custom manifold's top and bottom as well + any clearance issues with the subframe / other stuff in the engine bay

While I think 20mm is Alil much I def agree on having higher deck heights.
I'd have options for one that's slightly larger so you could deck it a few times and get away with stock size manifolds (slot the holes little larger for the room) and one that has a higher deck that still fits between the frame rails. Even if you had to jack up the motor to remove the plugs and get custom manifolds at this price range I think that's kinda a mute point....any advantage should be taken care of. IMO: these billet blocks arnt going sell well. Very low demand for this cause of price and A 2.5l CD can handle most people's needs. Id go built eg33 before this since price would probably be about the same but you'd gain .8-1.1L more displacement |

That manifold solution like that won't fly at billet block power levels. Spend $10k on a block to half @$$ the rest of it. Yeah, it was something Dom and I had discussed a long time ago, when ERL was super decking Hondas (2006). Then we saw the laundry list stacking up and the spark plug issue...went know where. |

If your talking about slotting the holes I agree but I'm sure you can get away with it to a extent without any real negative effect. full custom manifolds and the tallest deck available would be the way to go and if your shooting for 1200-1500 OTS stuff isn't probably a good choice anyway. |
