Fired my BBC for the first time!!!!
Well like the title states I fired my 454 for the first time. Wow is all I have to say. Not bad for a motor I picked up for $800.00 from a guy my brother knows. My brother also is friends with the owner of the machine shop who built it, We just need to figure out what cam is in it as the guy I bought it off of couldn't remember the cams specs. All he could tell me was big I'll see how it runs as far as Vacuum goes and change to a smaller one if needed. Hope you guys enjoy. Exhaust is Hedman mid-length Chevelle headers with Spintech Super Pro Street mufflers, 2.5" all the way back.

Re: Fired my BBC for the first time!!!!
Congrats!
What motor oil are you running in your BB? I'm worried about the whole ZDDP thing, and not having enough zinc, for my camshaft.
