That 470 build is impressive but find his dyno sheet and look at peak torque and the rpm it’s at. (I couldn’t find one) it may be 750hp but if the peak torque is lower and at a higher rpm, it’s gonna be a pig in a street car unless you spin the rpm. Hell, the OP wants a street car, not 4.56 gears and 7500rpm. This guy is screaming for a high torque, big cube engine. And who builds a street car with a dry sump? (Well, besides me...) There’s nothing quite like a 4.500 stroke engine with a huge, nearly level torque curve, on the street. With the right converter that 470 will probably be faster on the strip, but that 270 headed 535 will be king on the street and won’t break a sweat doing it. (Assuming this guy doesn’t under cam it) There’s way worse combos running around successfully than the 4.500 stroke BBM like big stroker BBCs with the pistons hanging half out of the bores at BDC. This side loading stuff might be an issue if the thrust side of the bore is .120 but then who’d build a stroker out of that? Mopar myths drive me nuts. This is one of em.
