Re: My BBC couple pictures.
Sound like nice heads, I notice the HV 2007 intake is rated for 3,500 to 7,000 but lists as a dual plane, is that the Rpm range you want, not sure what you are using it for, but looks major with those heads. Would like to hear that beast run.

Re: My BBC couple pictures.
Air gap would have it on low end an lose it on mid an upper. Brodix would do just the opposite. We are talking about 20 HP difference. So I went with the Brodix. The HV 2007 is a single plane.

Re: My BBC couple pictures.
I figured it had to be a single plane with the range it is rated for, but the site I used said dual plane, I thought no must be a mistake especially with those heads too. Should really rip, what stall are you running with it and trans.

Re: My BBC couple pictures.
Going with a 400 turbo an getting a converter made for it. Probably a Neal Chance. Either 4.11's or 4.30's in the rear. Have not made up my mine yet on gear. AED cust carb.

Re: My BBC couple pictures.
I never did catch the chamber c.c. for a final compression ratio?
|
Re: My BBC couple pictures.
CC's on the CC is 118. With those heads expect to see around 10.8 to 11.1.

Re: My BBC couple pictures.
The intake an valve covers are on now. I would like to have got it running this summer but the funds are not like they were last summer.

Re: My BBC couple pictures.
I think most of us know about 'funds' issues.
I say you have done very well so far. I can see you have already spent a good amount of funds on the quality parts you are putting into this engine. |
Re: My BBC couple pictures.
I like the block color with the alum and grey, nice.

The more I think about it the more I wish the timing cover was aluminum too. |
Re: My BBC couple pictures.
I agree with you on the timing cover..but it will be covered up mostly by the water pump so will only see the top of it up close but not from further back. Still cool.
|
Re: My BBC couple pictures.
Well on call again this weekend have plans of bolting the balancer an water pump sometimes this weekend.
|
Re: My BBC couple pictures.
Ya being on call keeps you at home, I just got off the on call, nice 1 week of freedom till next weekend again. Having a car show here tomorrow, end of season fall show, will take some pic's. Cleaned mine up all night for tomorrow.

Re: My BBC couple pictures.
That motor looks awesome Terry, I'm sure you are ready to let that beast rip!
|
Re: My BBC couple pictures.
Curious.....why a 427?
|
Re: My BBC couple pictures.
I built a car about 20 years ago with a 427 in it an wanted to build one again. No particular reason other than that reason.
|
Re: My BBC couple pictures.
Pro street I thought about building a 496 but. I just wanted to see what I could get the truck to do with a similiar engine. But it ended up more than what I had in the long run. So we will see how it turns out.
|
Re: My BBC couple pictures.
Don't know why but always liked the sound of saying I have a 427, me I have a 454 but just doesn't sound the same as a 427, must be a not as common vette thing.:lol:

Re: My BBC couple pictures.
Funny you say that. I thought I was going to freshen up my 454 but I called Scat this morning. I can get a 496 rotator for about $1,200. Can't imagine the torque. There IS something cool about saying 427. That's because is was the sheet back in the day. Sumpin kinda kool about "496" too! ;o)
|
Re: My BBC couple pictures.
Hmmm, $1,200 hey for a 496 kit, like my 454 with 525hp now, but getting used to it already and only have about 500 miles on it, will get a bit more as it loosens up but do like the sound of a 496 compared to a 454. WAY to many ideas here sometimes.:lol:
|
Re: My BBC couple pictures.
I run those same heads except i have the cnc version and 115cc chambers. Makes 10.5:1 with 18cc domes.
I run them on a 496 though. Took it out last weekend and played with air pressure in the slicks and went 7.08 @ 95.27. Still have alot to play with but i think these heads are really good. You should make some good torque |
Re: My BBC couple pictures.
I have since changed camshafts an put one of those fancy timing cover on Prostreet convinced me into buying. Also bought me a Neal Chance converter. Starting to get motivated on this project again.
