Can you please add the following information concerning the proper rivets and squeezer to apply the DZUS fasteners onto the splitter?...
============================================
Here are the part numbers to order the rivets and the squeezer:
Call Jay-Cee Sales & Rivet at 1-800-521-6777
Squeezer: TP-888-2 Hand Rivet Squeezer with 2” yoke AND part number 200-4504 1/8” Tubular Set for rivet squeezer (this is the insert for the squeezer)
Rivets: part# T125F002500 Oval HD Semi-Tub “430” stainless steel rivets (1/8” X ¼” X 7/32”) [these come in packets of 100]
These are for attaching the DZUS fasteners onto the splitter. You should use the supplied rivets (pop rivets) for attaching the springs onto the bumper.
Heads - the heads have been reworked for the R to provide better flow
Oil Pan - Canton Oil Products racing oil pan (9 quarts!)
Pistons - forged pistons (much stronger for racing)
Rods - titanium (again much stronger)
Crank - billet steel (again, you guessed it.. stronger)
Stroke - longer stroke than the normal Navigator motor to provide more "uumph" (that's a technical term)
Intake - a special "R only" intake plenum - this one SVT will NOT sell you if you are not an R owner - so you'll have to resort to something else in the aftermarket.
Headers - short tube headers for increased flow of spent gasses
Cast iron block

Are there arny for sale in the US? And where do I look?
And, what are they going for (for an example in excellent condition)?

BlackBolt9 said:The newest version of the R heads (from the GT) are available from FRPP now and I am looking at building a clone motor. Problem is I can't find any sort of intake (factory or aftermarket) let alone a set that is supposed to work with these unique heads. Anyone know what I am missing? Thanks for the help.
