Here's mine. It's kind of dirty, but it's my daily driver.

pilotj · 01-18-2009, 09:46 PM

And here's the 350 in my 74 1 ton parts truck.

Yes, I bought them from Summit, but, they are made by March Performance. I bought their complete kit for the front including a/c, alt, ps pump and all brackets.

They work great

The rat in the beater.

The most expensive engine I have ever owned.

A video of the Pontiac, turn the sound up as far as possible and you will get an idea of how loud it is with mufflers.

^^^Oh yeah, wicked poncho! You know ya can't just post engine porn like that without divulging the motor specs.....

Thumpin455 · 01-20-2009, 04:44 PM

Butlers did the machine/head work. 330cfm CNC E heads, 270/272@.050 solid roller, 4.25" eagle crank, 6.800" eagle rods, Ross flat top slugs, MSD ignition, Victor/1050. Makes a touch over 700 hp on 92 octane, and a bit more on home brew ethanol, but I really want to raise the compression to around 13:1/14:1 to take advantage of the alcohol. I might just sell some projects and buy a 535 IAII short block that will net that much squeeze with the 87 cc heads.

Its going back in my 79 Formula Firebird this spring, then its a matter of getting the car upgraded for the 2 second ET drop, ie, certified cage, axles with C clip eliminators, electrical shut off switch, and a stall more suited to the engine. The shelf B&M couldnt hold it, it just blew right through it. Still made 522ftlbs at the wheels before any tuning with that POS converter.

The GTO is getting another 455 I have been working on, since its already running ethanol. Currently it has a 9:1 455 that makes around 400hp, its getting a 550 hp 13:1 engine this spring, just as a cruiser. Since I make my own fuel, I can do this sort of thing and not worry about the price of gas.

mine

Nitebytes · 01-21-2009, 08:58 AM

Well here's mine.
She's a bit of a shed, just about everything needs some work on it from the wiring through to the nonexistant A/c or heater.

pokethesmot · 02-18-2009, 10:30 PM

jared78 · 02-21-2009, 03:05 AM

here's mine. with a good tailwind it will propel my truck down the highway at speeds that make the state police do nothing at all. (I have a 406 in the works right now to replace it)

enaberif · 02-21-2009, 03:16 AM

poke..

Can I make a suggestion? That fuel line is AWFULLY close to your manifold there.. could spell trouble.
