I thought I came back and updated this thread back a year ago.. Guess not.. The bbc that was a 469ci blower engine grew to a 475. After finishing the build I sent it on its way to the customer.. Last Monday I got the video of the first start up of the engine..

Pics of the engine build. Sorry the video is sideways.. I didnt film it. Be prepared for a sore neck..

The blower is really too small for that setup but the customer wanted it so he could fit it under the hood of whatever he was gonna put it in.. Wanted him to go with a simple 6-71 but he had his mind set..

I'll go for the old 6-71 with dual Holley's when the time comes.
