Im curious to see the final outcome.. nothing like hearing a cammed pushrod motor in a new-edge

and if you dont think a h/c/i 460 is capable of 450hp, then you need to go research some more

i have a full race port job on the heads, a 500 lift cam, decent intake, and a 750 carb...that is good for 400-450 at the wheels... and even more torque.... i really dont care about how much it makes on paper, but im aiming for low 12s without spray

im building the exact setup the guy who helped me build it was using and he made plenty of power...the car should be running low 12s on motor, and then 11s with the 200 shot wet kit

i could have bought a blower for the price of the swap, but then i would have needed to buy a new shortblock.... for the cost of a shortblock i could punch this motor out to a 557, which is the plan once the swap is finished....the motor going into it is just a play around motor, it wont be staying...thats why i bought 2 of them... once the swap is done, im building a stroker

the weigh gain doesnt bother me, ill be losing some of it anyways....as it sits now and how it will sit after the swap, i plan to only gain 250lbs

I'm shooting for 500rwhp N/A with my new motor, and if it don't go 10's I'm gonna set it on fire.
