454mag rebuild in progress
Alright, well I've got enough to start posting pics of the rebuild.
Jeff from JC Performance is doing the work.
The block is original mark IV, bored 30 over and decked.
It needs a bit more sanding at the cylinder openings, otherwise ready to go.

The heads are new dart iron eagles.
Jeff still needs to clean up the ports to get them to flow better.

Pistons are new & shaved. Connecting rods are original, but redone and cleaned up, new ARP bolts.

Re: 454mag rebuild in progress
This is for my 1995 Pantera 24SE.
Everything besides the block, conn. rods and crank will be new.
Will be putting a hotter cam in, 850holley carb, new intake, stainless marine exhaust. Expecting around 550hp. This will be dynoed.
Hopefully Jeff will chime in to answer these questions better.

Re: 454mag rebuild in progress
These are the 308s, and compression should be around 9.3.
Had to replace my oringinal large rectangular ports since one was shot, so Jeff suggested these. And I know the originals are too big for marine use.

I currently have a bravo one, but I'm thinking of changing to an XR upper.
