Winter projects
 

Guys.....the clown is probably laffing his nutz off reading all the wasted effort into his https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bs.gif ad!
Let's change the flow in here! (my 2 cents) How about some new posts??

All right Dan...It's on the road now. The 427 got 464 HP and 489 TQ. I think GM should have made one of these. It is fun. I put the rear end back in it with the arched springs. Sits a lot better now. Gotta get it cleaned up now. Can't wait for roads to clear up.

Re: That 427 Baldwin B.S. Fiasco Post.....MOVE ON!!!
 

Tony, what is your engine combo? I am having a 427 built now for my Beaumont. I should be back on the road by the end of next week according to the guy doing my work.

Gonna start working on my 70 L78 th400 car. Former street racer/drag car that is basically a stock L78 with a few upgrades. Has 4.56 gears, traction bars, Accel ignition, trans. cooler. Plan on adding headers, 163, 850 Holley, M&T valve covers. Needs a little TLC but should make a fun driver for shows and cruise nites. Trunk is full of vintage speed stickers from the day. Man does this thing shift fast with those gears....will try to post some photos in a couple of weeks.

Al, do you know Bill Rose in Somerset? I just shipped a steering wheel to him today for his 68 Chevelle.

My new engine will be done next week. Here is my combo: 427 + .060 4 bolt block, 7/16 floating pin rods with Wiseco pistons with approx 10.3 to 1 compression, sq. port 840 (110 CC) cast heads with 2.19/1.88 Manley stainless valves, Crane Gold roller rockers, Crane hydraulic cam with 282 duration and 533 lift, Edelbrock RPM intake with an 850 Holley and 2" Hooker headers. This is going in my 68 Beaumont SD with a 400 trans with a 2500 stall converter and 3.42 posi rearend. What do you think of this combo? What would you guess the hp to be?
Thanks, James

James...It's nothing fancy. I wanted a decent pulling pump gas engine.
512 2 bolt from a 69 Caprice.
.030 over TRW's cut down to 9.75 comp.
063 ovals with 2.19 and 1.88 minor port work and gasket match.Comp springs.
7/16 eagle rods
standard crank
comp XM 288H 12 cam 570 and 575 lift
Performer intake with a Pro-systems 950 double pumper
edelbrock fuel pump
comp roller tip rockers
2" hooker super comps

I am guessing your combo will do right at 500 Hp and 500 TQ.

Re: That 427 Baldwin B.S. Fiasco Post.....MOVE ON!!!
 

jfk: Not that I'm any expert, but I'd guess your combo to be in the 475-500hp (flywheel) range...anyone got a Desktop Dyno program to run the numbers through?

And what's with everyone using the heavy 7/16 rods?

Ask and you shall receive ... Tony's SS427 Nova... WOW!
This thing is stunning Tony... wheel/tire combo please...

It is so tastefully done, headers sticking out the bottom, license plate and even the "427" emblem...
The side trim, black top and black interior make this car POP! My hat is off to you Tony.

What a cool car. Plane and simple.
