Need slant heads for OHC project

Serj22 said

I'm thinking then with your setup the oil pump and fuel pump would need to be addressed as well? Both electric? If you ever get the OHC bracket thing going right I'd like to put it on my turbo slant if I had the cash for it. It sounds cool. Would this be a "bolt on" ordeal where one removes the rocker shaft, valves, and all the stuff attached to the head and mounts this? Or would it be a complete conversion of the head? I assume there would need to be a bearing drilled into the front of the head to to manage the cam gear. Or would it go out of a custom valve cover at a higher position?

I was thinking about this all just last night, literally didn't get any sleep. I'm already going to run an electric fuel pump, and possibly a dry sump oil pump ran by a pulley. I'm thinking about going with FAST XFI and I'm wondering if is possible to run ignition through it as well. This will all be considered throughout the build. As for the valve cover, I'll probably modify a slot that sits flush against a front bracket with a gasket. I'm going to attempt to make this with as little machine work to the head as possible. I might build a custom valve cover that everything mounts to. We'll see. I'd like to make a kit that's ready to go for the public. It will have to be extremely precise and sturdy with the boost and RPM's I want to run out of mine. Trying to push 800+ horsepower, so every gain counts
