I'm thinking about having a custom built 540 for my Chevelle. I'm running a 454 that's been bored out..and I run it with an 8-71 BDS blower. The problem is...the old motor is a two bolt main...The crank has only one key way instead of the two for a blower...the heads ports are wrong....so...I plan on jacking the new blower up and putting a new engine under it!
I know 540 is plenty engine...I'm curious to know of anyone running a 540 in a Chevelle? This all started with the original motor having a 6v-71 Dyers blower...I could find no parts for the unit, so decided to upgrade the blower....During disassembly...I found out about all the problems...so that's what's brought on the desire for something better! I know it's crazy with $2.00 gas...but I've wanted a Chevelle since I was in High School but could never afford it. Now I want to build a hot one!(GRIN) Dan Mascheck Wharton, TX -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, March 26, 2005 1:00 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Chevelle-list Digest, Vol 20, Issue 61 Send Chevelle-list mailing list submissions to [email protected] To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit http://chevelles.net/mailman/listinfo/chevelle-list_chevelles.net or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can reach the person managing the list at [EMAIL PROTECTED] When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of Chevelle-list digest..."
