4th Gen BBC Project Figured I would finally post my project car since it's about to be finished. I still have a lot of work to do, but most of the parts have been bought and are just waiting to go on. Here is the car.....
Here it is after I painted the engine bay
All the motor stuff....Gen V 502 bored .100, 4.25 Eagle crank, Crower SPS +.250 rods, Wiseco Low Dome Pistons netting 11.1 CR, Comp Endurex SR lifters, Comp 1.7 Pro Mags, Bret Baur SR cam, misc hardware.

RHS 320cc heads touched up by Lloyd Elliot, they flow a little over 400 cfm on a 4.310 bore, mine is a 4.56 bore so they might flow a little more.....pics are as cast, don't have any after the port work. Manley valves 2.25/1.88, PAC springs, BRE lightweight steel retainers, 10* locks.
Seimens Deka 79lb/hr injectors, I'm pretty sure that they should work, if not then I can always bump up the fuel pressure to get the needed flow. I'm only expecting around 825 fwhp so I think the stock lines and walbro should be fine until I start spraying.
Finally the brains of the operation, and a big thanks go to Brady for hooking me up with BS3/DAI. Once my Autometer gauges come in I'll post those up too.

All in all I think this will be a pretty cool project. When I get new batteries in the camera I'll get pics of the other stuff like TB, Victor Jr 454R manifold, Meziere Elec. w/p, etc.

I'm so freakin' stoked right now!!
N/A, but I do have plans to put a spray bar in the manifold and hit it with a 150-225 wet shot. That won't happen until I get the Midwest 9" though, I going to gamble with the 10 bolt so I can get it out to the track. Obviously I will be babying it out of the hole, but it should be fun none the less.

Cool I'd blend the piston dome and polish the combustion chambers and get the bowls blended and gasket match the heads, as long as you don't reshape anything you should be able to blend everything yourself without messing anything up.
With a motor that big you can spray more, I'd go at least 300
Awesome project, what cam are you going with?

I'm not going to blast the pistons, but I do know what you are talking about.
As far as the heads all that has already been done by Lloyd. I just don't have pics of it.

Yeah the outside is going to be stock looking. Even going to narrow the front wheels and widen the back ones. Probably end up doing the BFH mod and a little cutting so I can fit a big tire back there on the stock rim.

As cast, like in the picture, they flowed about 380 cfm. Again that was on a 4.310 bore fixture at Lloyds shop when I dropped them off. It was an end runner that was flowed as well, and they tend to be the worst flowing.
