SEMA-Member Companies Donate Parts for Scholarship Engine—a 700-plus-hp Dart LS Next Package
Launched two years ago, the SEMA Scholarship Engine Project has enjoyed support from nearly two dozen manufacturers and the talents of noted engine builder Ed Pink. The first year saw a 347ci small-block Ford engine go on the auction block, while a 405ci small-block Chevy was built last year. Both engines featured Dart SHP iron blocks and SHP aluminum cylinder heads.
The SEMA Scholarship Engine project—a 700+ hp package based on a Dart LS Next cast-iron block—will be offered on eBay beginning December 12, 2013.
Students preparing for careers in the automotive industry may be
eligible to receive automotive scholarships—ranging from $1,000–$4,000—through
the 2012 SEMA Memorial Scholarship Fund (SMSF). The scholarship
application requires college transcripts and letters of recommendation
and is now available at www.sema.org/scholarships.
