I have flat top pistons now. 4:11 gears right now 3speed auto I haven't
decided on a 2400 or a 2800 stall converter. Next year it will be a built
200r I have even thought about a 496 stroking. right now I have a weind 2p
180 intake I do not know any info on it. A 780 vacuum secondary Holley I
built a HEI with all new parts including a HEI supper coil. All going in a
all sheet metal 70 SS if you need more info let me know.
PS--- the part that I found inthe oil pump I belive was part of a spring

I agree with Clint. Maybe we can help you save money
and my world products heads are the best. It's always
good to save where you can and spend for heads and
perhaps a little "bowl work", as it were.

Are the stock pistons ok? If so,why not keep them

some World Merlin oval port heads,instead? If it
were me doing the build-up,I would try to stay away
from compression ratios that require premium fuel.
The difference between a 9:1 and 10:1 compression
ratio is probably less than 20hp/20ft lbs tq.
Tell us more about your combination. What
transmission will you be using? What rear gear?
Not familiar with those #360 head castings. Can
anyone offer their input?

Well the wife gave me the ok to rebuild the 454 I
want to get as much hp as possible will be going
with Forged Dome, 4.250 or a little more in 10to1 or
better I would like to go with a Lunati Voodoo Cam
or some thing similar (((looking for some
suggestions))) any help would be great especially
with some one that has done a 454 build up before. I
am trying to save some guess work. I am no stranger
to building engines. I would like to get the right
combo the first time around if you know what I mean.
can I get 400 to 500 hp out of these heads
casting #14092360 I am rebuilding my 454 and the
budget does not allow for replacement heads yet.
thanks for your input.
