FS: Carb 454 Magnum - 365HP

1989 454 Magnum
365HP with the forged internal goodies
750hrs
Always fresh water

Looking to bump up power and playing around with the idea of swapping motors, instead of building this, so testing the waters. Motor is still in the boat and pushed my 24 Vector to 70.9 on GPS last season. Heres a video idling:

The bottoms of the factory bolsters were getting a bit rotted so I purchased Corbeau Forzas and modified the factory frame.

Im 6'4" so I lowered the seating position to look more sleek.

I had the same model engine in my 1989 Regal/Velocity. A sweet running engine that never gave me any problems.

Yes sir, it's proven to be a reliable and strong motor. I just dont know the street value as is, or whether its more cost efficient to purchase a carb HP500 and sell this or build the 454 to ~500HP.
