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?
