Have you posted the rest of the engine build ? Would be interesting !
I mostly followed Andy's build except with my 526" shortblock.
Here is the total build:
4.375 x 4.375 RB with race block prep and oiling mods by muscle motors.
Hughes girdle.
ARP bolts/studs everywhere
Milodon oil pump (internally ported) with adjustable pressure regulator.
Blueprinted Eagle crank and rods (7.100" w/.990 tapered tool steel pins)
Ross custom forged reverse dome pistons at zero deck
.031 4.380 bore Cometic MLS head gaskets
Total bob weight 2275
Trick flow power port 270's (78cc chambers with full port job by Larry Smith)
Hughes 1.6 rockers (with geometry corrected by Mike Beachel at B3 Racing). Rockers were converted to use Trend ball-end-pushrod adjusters for better geometry.
Trend 7/16" .165 oil thru pushrods
Custom ground Bullet solid roller cam (.715/.714 lift tight lash
[email protected] intake/
[email protected] exhaust
MRL ProPlus lifters
ProGear double roller timing set
Indy 440-2 intake modified and fully ported by Larry also.
850 Mighty Demon carb for now. It will be replaced in the spring by a BLP 1050 with annular boosters.
Ignition by MSD (wires, dizzy, digital 6 box) with Jacobs Ultra-coil
TTI 2" headers feeding into a 3" x-pipe exhaust.
This all goes in my 3800 lb. beast with a Cope 727 with purpose built Ultimate 9.5" 4000 stall converter.
I have a new S-60 4.10 rear end on order now as the 8-3/4 won't live in front of this motor for long.
Next year will be fun when I can get it to the track. I can post the flow numbers if you want them.
