500+BHP.. looking inside the belly of the beast
Hello we've all heard it a 1,000+ times..@ a car show or just crusie'n "Hello mate how much BHP in your engine mate?" Right well she's 500+BHP easly.... she's a 355cid Chevy V-8 & got 9.1:1 comp , .470 lift cam, double roller chain, race'n oil pump ,heads are GM Vette heads fellow told me were totaly reworked & would flow huge #'s to feed my beast. Intake is Ed's Performer & Ed 650 CFM carb , Dizzy is tricked out GM HEI... she's got the works mate.
We i'm sorry but there is no way on this gods earth any engine similar to these will produce anywhere near 500+BHP maybe 240 to 325 BHP....
Anyhow to give you a 1st hand look @ what it takes to build a 500+BHP engine / street driven engine . I'm thinking of posting a photo by photo complete built from scratch 500+BHP street engine. That would take you from bare block to complete turn key ..this would give people a heads up on what it takes to build that kind of engine & what parts & operations are needed to get the job done & make the beast last in a street driven car. . Question is would people want to see such a posting? Feel free to leave me your comments PRO or CON.... If more Pro i'll post the build.
Cheers! Dr.Dee
PS: Build is for Ultima GTR for street & track use
