Can one explain the reason behind reversing the lobes for cyl 4, 5 and 6? That's very interesting. Cheers, Wizard |

Cylinders 4,5 and 6 are in mirror image to 1,2 and 3. The layout from front to back is EI EI EI IE IE IE. The back three have to be mirrored to the front 3. At least that's what I take it to mean. |

Did the Toyota casting take to welding? The ls1 is 356 alloy that welds really well. I actually used a large press to remove warpage incured while welding. No cracks or damage. How did the bore spacing work out, any overlap? Did you cut and join two sections or three? |

While searching around for 4" bore spacing heads I came upon the DOHC Northstar/Aurora engine. The Aurora is 87mm bore so it's valves would fit down a slant cylinder. They use 4 bolts per cylinder too. |

Don't forget the classic Jaguar inline six. It also has a 4 inch bore spacing. There are four bolts around each cyclinder, but the pattern is slightly wider to allow for the overhead cams. The water jackets in the example I saw was in the same place but probably not the oil passages. |
