16 valve you have 1 for intake and 1 for exhaust.. total of 16. a 32 will have 2 intake and 2 exhaust... usually found on DOHC motors like the 4.6 cobra.

There is a shop here in town that has a 32 valve LT4 sitting on a motor stand.

Dominion/Arao made a couple sets of 32-valve heads for the LT1. No one has had much luck with these... with at least two engines currently "unfinished".

So what should I do, Ferd? Hand a blank check and a credit card to a shop and have them build my car like you did? You can't even call that car "yours." It is Second Street Speeds! Running 11s with a 250 shot of N20...yeah, YOU DA MAN! HELL NO!!!!!!!

And at least my car isn't a trailer queen parade float like yours. I actually DROVE my car to work last night! Can you do that? Only if you pretend you are driving it while it is sitting on the trailer attached to yer truck!

Do you really wanna get into it with me, OLD MAN?

Big Show: unstable bob only knows ONE WAY to BRING DA' PAIN!
And that is the IRON FIST IN A STEEL GLOVE APPROACH!
Plus I'm not rushing perfection...the exhaust note alone of my 455 is enough to send ricers running home cryin' to their mamas, so I don't have to answer to anyone, especially Grumpy Ol' Man Ferd!

bob,
I highly suggest you quit while your not trampled. Fred is one of the most (if not THE most) respected board member. His seemingly infinite knowlage and wisdom has helped us all.

And correct me if i am wrong, but he has an EMISSIONS LEGAL STREET DRIVEN (hence the lisence plates and need for emissions legal) car running 11.3 on a 150 shot. Those times were off the old setup.

On a personal note-
the wiring and complexity of that vehicle would probobly make you want to jump off a cliff if you were ever asked to duplicate it

First of all LITTLE MAN, do you know who the hell you are talking to? Who is gonna trample me, YOU??? I think not! I do think you need to shut yer cyber piehole and mind yer own bizness, especially since you ain't got all the facts, Jack! Since you seem to know so much about Fred's car lemme ax you this: how many times have you seen Fred's car in person? Ridden in Fred's car? Stored Fred's car trailer for him? Drank beers with Fred? Drove Fred home from the shop? Can I assume your answer would be "ZERO?" Yup, thought so! And just fer the record, I can hang lisc. plates on a dayum Sherman Tank, and that don't make it street legal! Especially here in Jersey! Fred has chosen a path of dragness vs. streetness, and so it shall be!

PS: Fred, straighten yer boys out, huh?
PSS: I still have those dayum Heineys in my fridge for ya. Drink up, eh?
