Hi everyone
Quick intro,
Im from England (UK) and due to the fact we build small engines, over the last year I have got a 454 chevy engine and ancillaries a TH400 gearbox and a 10 bolt axle, I have now purchased a 1971 Ford Capri and That little lot is going to go in to it, After stripping the 454 I have found the crank to be in poor condition I would say it was re-shelled as it looks like its knocked out rod number 3. So this my friends is where I need help, As soon as I say 454 chevy in England I get a lot of funny looks, What Im looking for is this.........What would you do, you guys have been tuning these things for years so If I can benefit from your experience that would be great.
Im Thinking this
Stroker kit
Oversize pistons
Camshaft
Balance
Supercharger ??????
Inlet manifolds
Exhaust manifolds i think you call them headers
I want to buy all of the stuff from the USA unless advised otherwise.
Its gonna take me quite a while to build my little project.
So give me some help from the people that know
Thanks in advance.
