I took a 454 2 bolt main block, put a 6223/3.76 steel crank with 7/16 dimple rods and 427 Keith Black hypereutectic
pistons. Heads were 115cc 6272990 rectangular port with 3933163 intake and 4053/780 vacuum secondary Holley. Compression was 9.975 to 1. Ran on 93 octane and was about 520 HP...... Muncie M20 with 3:73 12 bolt. Tons of fun in my 1968 Nova.
The best part about it was it would rev as fast as a small block which is an advantage over a 454 in my opinion. Plus I love rpm's....

Did you have to use a block girdle or are they splayed mains?
