I fixing to do this with a tall deck 454 from a 1986 RV. Is this build finished or? I need ideas 🤔 i may send the block to the machine shop to have the deck shaved and bore the cylinders 0.30 over, but i ain't decided yet. I do plan on stroking it tho
Did ya get it together? Make sure you have the rod small ends sized for proper pin fit, last few sets I’ve done were too tight out of the box. I’m putting together a 496 flat top build right now topping it off with an 8-71 blower. The AFR ENforcer 335 heads are real good value and plenty of flow for a hot street big block, especially with a little boost, you don’t need CNC ports at this level. Big blocks are kings!
i have a few of the 450 hp 454 they have a steel crank heavy rods high flow heads with the 02xx 400 r turbo trans which is good to 800 hp stock the trans comes with the heavy duty 8 bolt pump heavy clutches and stage one shift kit from factory . the best part is i get them for free out of the last 4 i got they had 6,000 to 58,000 miles on them . the engine just need to breath a good intake and a 850 holley and it comes live the trans is perfect for a street rig nothing needed for it . i put one in my 68 chevy pu that i been building and it drives sweet lots of power and it has 10.5 to 1 compression perfect for the street . plus i get a desert cool radiator twin electric pusher fans full set of coolers oil, trans, power steering and the full set of lines with a serpentine belt setup. so i end up saving tons of money on a build plus i got a set of leather bucket full movement electric heated seats for 25 bucks each that came out of a wrecked land rover then i put a 70 blazer center console that i got for free . right now i only have 2000 in my 68 and still have a fresh 327 with 400 turbo that came with the truck . all that i have left to do is finish the interior doors and final paint the rest of it is dun
@@EJonDaPedal u can get the 02xx 400r turbo out of trucks and motorhomes on the case bell housing it will have 02xx welded on it that is when u know u got one they are perfect for a street car plus they are cheap to build up to 2000 hp trans .GM calls them a strip or heavy application transmission
@@EJonDaPedal if u put a bunch of money in it but sorry to say if u run it hard it will not last as long as a 02xx trans not even close to it every metric trans are weak as hell
@keithscudder7136 I don't think it will fit. Read somewhere that u would have to get a gen v oil pan and timing cover but I don't think the pan bolts line up. Also heard something about machining.
Thanks plenty on getting back to me. With all that, I'll stick with a 2-piece seal then. I also plan on having the block magnafluxed and was just curious, what if they find a crack in one of the cylinders ? Does that mean Boat-anchor for sure ? Thanks for your 2.5 cents ! (my keyboard is missing the (cent) sign ).
You're going to have problems. Unless you're prepared to spend another 5k at least on somebody else doing all the work including assembly, meaning a professional shop.
Oh nice, us street motor guys gotta stick together
I agree
Yes Sir = you have done a great job collecting tough parts = in the end = twin torbo`s rear mounted = work well on the street as a sleeper !
That will be a Torque Monster.
Somebody here because ball Greezy if you know you know lol😂😂😂 took my 454 to a 505 😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
First thing that came to mind 😂😂
Brooooooo that song litterally popped up in my head when I saw the title lol😂😂😂😂😂
Are the cylinder walls thick enough to bore 0.100” ? Sonic testing?
No they weren't. I ended up going .060 bore

Throw a high quality micrometer on that crank. You'll be surprised.
Rods too

It's almost finished. I got more vids on it on the channel. Let me know if u got questions, I'll do my best to answer
It would be a good nitrous motor
How much grinding on the block will it require?
None. If it was a bigger crank, the block may need grinding

I haven't put it together yet. Those r the heads I'm thinking bout getting. Thanks for the good info!
Nice
Cool.
Big dollars pays off👍

@jeffrey4547 Thanks, that good to know. It came with a turbo 400 but I'm gonna put a 4l80 behind it

@jeffrey4547 oh gotcha. That's a good point
Just subscribed, in process of building a 512 from a Gen 4 454 V - 8.
That's gonna be a nice build
Do you know if the rear main seal from a Gen -5, (one-piece seal), will work on my Gen 4 crank ? Thanks in advance

@keithscudder7136 If it has a crack it could be sleeved but that's gonna cost more and gotta find a shop willing to do it. Hopefully it's not cracked
Is the motor running yet ? Curious to know the dyno ??
Not yet
Not going to make much power with a flat top piston. Seen to many 454 built with a flat top piston and 781 heads and they swear it makes 600hp.
I know. I got the block built for a power adder
What’s it going in?
94 silverado
How much did those parts come up 2?
The wood I already had. But it was $71. The parts r in the description
Flat top pistons won't make 600 plus HP with out a turbo or a supper charger/blower do some research before wasting $ lol
I know, that's why I built the block to add boost
