Need your opinions
I have a basically stock recently rebuilt 454 with the crappy 236 peanut port heads I was looking at the Edelbrock 60499 heads which should bring the compression up to 9.2 according to them. Then a Edelbrock rpm cam or similar and a single plane o port intake.
Cam specs are 560 intake, 573 exhaust, 112 lsa.
Do you think this is worth doing till I can afford to do the bottom end up with a forged rotating assembly?
Desktop Dyno is giving me 501hp and 479tq at 5500rpm. Would the stock bottom end be able to take this?
You're welcome Mike, glad it worked out for you. Roger, it's taken a few years but my inventory of excess parts has shrunk a fair bit from 1 1/2 garage stalls to about an eight by eight space. ...
