This is my first big block, so I'm kinda using a motor that Edelbrock built as a guide. Pistons are Sealed Power, heads are cast iron 049 heads that have been rebuilt. Compression ratio should be around 10.25:1. Cam, and intake are Edelbrock performer rpm. Carb is Edelbrock 750. Only difference between mine and Edelbrocks is the heads. They used Edelbrock performer rpm heads. At almost $2,000 for a set, those will come a little later. haha. Their motor put out 533 hp. Nothin too crazy, but it should be fun! Thanks for the welcome, by the way!
