Yea, so we said screw it.. let's see if we can make it a 454. lol

New plan:

Tomorrow the 402 comes out so we can re-undercoat the car.

Here's what we have so far:

Sleeved LS2 block (Darton MID)
Mast Motorsport 12-degree LS3 style heads
4.185 bore
4.125 stroke - Lunati Pro Series crank
6.125 K1 lightweight (614g) H-beam rods
Wiseco Pistons yielding about 11.5:1 compression
Comp cam on a 114 LSA.. should idle pretty smooth.
FAST 102mm LSXr intake
Ported TBW throttle body
Canton oiling system
ARP everything

That would make this a 454 aluminum small-block LS engine. Conservative estimates are 670hp and over 600 lb-ft of torque.

Weight gain, due to the sleeves, should be around 6-lbs

Just need to do a few mods to the Canton oil pan. Still doing the math on it, but it should work just fine.

Sounds like that's going to be one nice engine. Very nice Steve. Are you doing an article on it too?

454, is that a big block? You're like me, pushing the limit every chance you get. I like it....

Yep.. Looks like it will be in CP and most likely Engine Masters since it's a bit unique.

More like a big small-block I guess.. It is sorta crazy what you can do these days.

This car is like a supermodel. Every thinks it's the sexiest thing in the world and couldn't be more perfect...but someone somewhere isn't happy with it.

Very nice motor Steve, any idea what it would cost for us non-magazine guys?
