I have acquired an engine block and a carburetor over the past three weeks. Trying to curb my spending, but still pick up a few things as I am able to. My money tree needs to hurry up and sprout!
I have settled on an engine build... 74' 454 block - .100" overbore, internally balalnced & lightended 4" stroke crank, Howards I-Beam rods - stock length, small dome pistons - shooting for around 10.5 - 11:1 CR, GMPP 401 casting NHRA legal cylinder heads - hoping to have enough cash to port them, a custom hdraulic roller with Morel lifters from Chris Straub, the 163 intake manifold I have - center divider will be cut down and some porting done, 3310 Holley I have - reworked by an undetermined source, repop exhaust manifolds - reworked and carved on by me, roller rockers, 71' LS3 distributor I have laying around with a Pertronix Ignitor III and a recurve kit. The goal is 525 - 550 HP @ the crankshaft. I want to run mid 11s on pump gas and G70X14 red line tires. (I think the red lines will look great against the code 55 paint - and they were an option in 1969)
