Yep..JDM does 4 valve 3.4 whipple motors

Went to JDMs yesterday to check out my truck and while I was there I watched Jim and Shaun building this motor for Don (sorry can't remember his last name) to go in his white L.. He also owns a Ford Gt supercar.. Thats why he got the blue valve covers , to match his cars.LOL

They were installing a newer (much lighter) harmonic balancer as I was takin the pics

should be in the truck in a week and numbers soon to follow

You might want to take a look at the larger 3.4 inlet

All I want to know is does that Upper fit the wittle wipple ? It actually looks like you would be able to change spark plugs on a 2V with that upper.

V you wouldnt be getting 4V envy would you ??? BTW I bet thats your motor right there being giving to Don and now you'll have to wait another 2 years

BTW, those 4V Motors are da schitt

I was thinking maybe do the valve covers in white to match the blower, but I get the wanting to keep the valve covers the same on Don's fleet, either way blue, white or pink who cares cool setup.

Does that motor have 2 driver side heads? If you look at the second pic it looks like it does.

OK I am in the middle of assembling a 32 V motor and I just found out I was sold 2 driver side heads. It looked like on the pass head was a driver side head BC of the clearance for the cam chains and the cam gears. I was told that they are both the same heads LH and RH is that true jimIII?
