My MB ML’s were like that.  Who the hell designs these things?  At least it had jumper connections under the hood.

We say at work it’s the Germans getting back at us for kicking there ass in the war 😂. Ya luckily most have connections under the hood if the battery is in a stupid spot.

Ever see where the starter was on the Northstar engine?

Had to pull the intake to change the PVC system on the BMW> Wicked impressed. Yep, starter was right there also.

Any weight taken from the front and put in back helps to give a better 50/50 weight balance, also saves room. As far as engine bay mayhem, putting the twin turbos in the V of the motor..... Jesus...

Okay, 12:1 compression.
I believe hyd roller is for sure a typo. Bet it is solid roller.
Specs/parts page now available (not totally complete) here:
https://www.gmperformancemotor.com/parts/19432060.html

Price is yet to be determined yet.

Hydraulic roller, .780” lift, 12:1 93 octane pump fuel…….. lolololol
Has to be some typos in there. Ha.

If the base circle of the cam is large then you could run that lift on a hydraulic lifter

 

and 12:1 on 93 is likely fine with a large cam due to lower dynamic compression

We’ll see. But s 2.450 valve with a spring good for 7k + rpm's .780 lift is going to be tough on s hyd lifter. I’m up on this aspect. Lifters/conical springs/light retainers/ cam design etc.

Nothings impossible but i have my doubts. :) 

Will be interesting as more info comes out and some put into use. :thumbs 

round table talk. All good 👍

Pretty  cool for sure. 

IMHO, Mercruiser has the coolest , but the price tag sure takes a lot out if it. Lol.
