Great engine news
While asking questions about why my crate engine would have a rectangular port intake, I checked the numbers on the heads.
heads:14097088...91-up...rect...OPEN...Gen.V 454/502 HO
block:12550313...454.......91-up...4-bolt, Gen.V crate motor, Gen. VI 4.25" bare block, fuel pump boss
Sounds like I have the 454HO. Definitly better than the 365 HP crate motor that I thought I had....... :smash: :cheers: :D
Now I KNOW that I need something bigger than the 600 CFM carb!!

Re: Great engine news (tworottiedogs)
That's great :D , Yes deffinitly feed that thing with something bigger then a 600. I'd think something in the 750-800 cfm range would probably be appropriate. have fun.
