Default Re: can -am aluminum engine

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: BLOWNALKYCAMARO</div><div class="ubbcode-body">when i was looking this engine over i noticed stamped on the front of the drivers side head is DIAMOND RACING ENGINES ,seems to me i recall seeing zl1 pictures with that on the cars. Anyone know anything about them? Can some one tell me how to post pictures or can i send them to someone and have them post them,thank you </div></div>

My understanding is that Bill King Engine Service had the contract to build the Can Am engines for Chapparal. Bill King sent the engines to Diamond Racing Engines for Dyno work and I believe CJ Batten did the head work. According to the original owner of my LS7 Corvette, purchased at Dexter Chevrolet in Detroit, the 454 in my car followed the exact same route before it got between the fenders.
