Re: Thoughts on this engine?????

James,

Could you tell Why your previous motor blew up?

Since 512 blocks were built as 427s and 454s, I don't see why a 454 built as a 427 would make any difference as long as the rotating assembly was matched.

I'm sure with new pistons, you'll have this one balanced!

Have your balancing guy do a before and after comparison for you, showing the difference (printout) in out-of-balance weight at 6000 rpm. It's pretty amazing.

Good luck! BCD
