I asked him for a general rundown of what went into the motor. That's when he went into the "engine builder has spent years honing his skills" and "prefers not to put his secrets on the internet" claims. While the car is complete and he is driving it, he does not yet have the receipts, build sheets, etc. He has absolutely no idea what is in that motor, and if told, I'm sure he would not even know what any of it means.
Photos of the build show a stock crank and stock rods with what appear to be JE pistons. The heads clearly have pretty normal, stock port sizes for a 2.7, probably 36mm or so. Certainly not the monster 40-44mm ports required to feed a motor of this size making that kind of power, spinning at the rpm required to do so.
Oh well, he seems like a nice enough guy, just no background with any of this from which he can evaluate this kind of information. He is kind of at the mercy of what his engine builder told him or, maybe more accurately, what he thinks his engine builder told him. It looks like a great 2.7 build, at least from the photos.
