I've seen lots of stuff like that done....but I think he wants to drive it longer than 10,000 miles. I once wanted a whipple but not sure what it would do to my engine in the long term.

I'm trying to piece together something like this for my '47 now! I have an L33 long block, the all aluminum 5.3, that I'm pricing up pistons and rods to make it more dependable. I also have a Holset off of a Cummins that I may try on there. Anyone want to buy a 454 so I can fund this project?
