New Motor

#1 Post by Blade » Sun Jul 03, 2011 7:34 am

So over the week I changed Motors. I went from a Stock 454 to a Roller 468 pushing around 750 hp.

Pulled the front Clip to make it easier.

Only took about two hours to pull the motor.

Drove it for a weekend and spend 400.00 in Cam2 PULLED the motor and it been in our garage ever since. The owner said it ran 10.20s in the car with no suspension.
