Just put together a pretty nasty little small block for my square body. I’m estimating it to be about 475-500 horse. The link is a short idle clip, it sounds very good.
Steel crank, flat top pistons, .40 over bore, 10:1 compression. 575/580 at 280 duration, 1.6 roller rockers. aluminum 200cc heads 2.02,1.6 valves, brawler double pumper, mechanical advance HEI.
That should be fun, when are you going to drop it in? I have a couple K5 blazers (86 and 87), I keep thinking about doing something for a little more HP in my 87.
Nice, I have thought about doing an LS swap in my 87, that TBI is just not very much HP. The 86 has a healthy 350 in it that's a little more fun to drive. What transmission are you running?
I have thought about that, but I figure by the time I get this engine running "decent" I will have almost as much as an LS swap. I also have a SBC 400 sitting in my shop I thought about throwing in there.
