The 4.1 being used (Riviera/Lesabre block) is the one I'm using as well. They're well known for overheating, but with that amount of bad-assery thrown into that build, I doubt that will ever be a problem. I wish I had the funds to even get mine put together and running in a reasonable amount of time. Let alone go dry-sump, etc. Truly awesome.
