I have known all about Mr.Rick Engman for the last 16 years. One day I will meet the legendary guru. First time I have seen his exhaust ports. Identical to some of my exhaust ports. Once I finish up the sell of my shop. I'm going to drive down to meet Cameron at pettit racing, before I stop at pettit I'm going to visit Rick in Atlanta..

hey Ito....I just notice the top of the exhaust port.....look familier?

I think the water pump mods and thermostat mod...(some by pass?) are something new. The oil passage porting job I didnt know was on that end. I always cleaned up the front housing oil port . More pics of the water pump stuff PLEASE.
