Thread: Building my first Chevy Engine

Tweet

Hi guys,

Newbie to the board and newbie to Chevy engines. My experience, to date, has been building Ford FE engines. Go ahead and take your shots and get it out of your system.

I just picked up an 87-90 Gen I 5.7L and am having trouble finding specs on the heads and intake. I was hoping someone might happen to know a couple things:

1) Specs on heads part # 10147898 (combustion chamber and valve size)
2) Specs on intake part # 14014434
3) Recommendation for a good reference book on Chevy part numbers.

Relatively mild build going into a '94 Jeep Wrangler. Just seeing if these parts are worth cleaning up and using or sharing them with the Salvage yard and starting over.

Thanks for your help. I'm fairly confident this won't be my last question here.

All the best,

Mike
