We will be building a 555 to 582 next year and hope to make 800+ street friendly power and torque for the 67 camaro I got from David at Road Killer.

Thank you for the link, looks like some great packages and prices.

I will still be building a final engine for the car so I still want feed back and info.

I don't have any sheets or est. for it but I would guess it should be good for 400-450ish at most. Enough to have fun, It was a great deal so I could not pass it up. I pick it up in 2 weeks and I should have all the paper work on it so I will post all the goodies when I get it home.

Nice. And 496 stoker kits are cheap when you're ready for 600+ hp/ft lbs.

OK here it is....my starter engine!!!!!





Fresh rebuilt 454
4 bolt main
bored 030
forged dome pistons 10:1 comp.
ls6 crank
Isky cam 590 lift solid lifter
990 rec port heads just had valve job
Holley intake manifold
Holley Carb 750 double pumper
roller rockers
HEI Dizzy
new GM starter

Picked it up in SoCal from a member on here, great deal

My idea is to plug this into the car, get my TKO600 installed and purchase a pulley system, headers, rad. and any other little odds and ends. Get the feel for what I can expect out of a 454 and then make a judgement on where I will start and build a bigger engine.

I am strongly leaning on something like this....feel in love with this car over the weekend....









ProCharged BBC


Maybe do a stroked 454, low comp and a ProCharger. Still waiting to take a ride in a local guys Camaro that is pretty similar, think his is a 468ci with ProCharger.


Am I smokin crack here or you guys think this ProCharger stroked 454 is the wrong direction?

You should read the whole thread (specifically, the post right above yours). He already bought a 454.
