Looking good !

Looking good. Those motors made sone pretty good power and torque. What size carb do you have on those engines? I working toward some similar power goals.

What is the cubic inch of the new engines? I would assume 540's?

Holley 800’s but I need a little more carb maybe 1100’s? They couldn’t keep up as they should and could have on the dyno builder says a good carb swap I could see an additional 35-45hp maybe more? But for now I’m gonna leave them alone after everything I’ve been through with these things im just happy they are back home and built how they should have been built!

Thank you…..

those numbers are just a standard 454 30 over?

Don’t those motors have a stroker crank?
