383(30 over)eng(installed as longblock assembly.)
flat top forged pistons(old trw's)
steel crank and factory rods(1968)
ballanced and blueprinted
440 sorce fluid damp harmonic.
906 heads,ported and polished.oversized mp valves 214/181,guides cut to fit cam.titanium vlv locks.440 source springs.
mp mechanical camshaft part#p4120663 312 duration,.590 lift,and 104 overlap.(ya i know its huge,but i am still gonna run it)
