Small Block & Big Block Chevy Specific - Post pics of your 4th gen with BBC

Ive found very few pics im after... I want to see you 4th gen f-body with a bbc... post away!

How far along are you on your car?

Since you seem to be more interested in N20 setups, here's car we put together, it's a tall deck 572 with two dry foggers and a FAST setup...

my car is 100% stock z28 right now... just gather information for a few months before I touch anything

p.s that looks awsome!!!

who made the headers for the bbc in the 4th gen? mines a short deck 477 with kits.

do you think a dominator will fit with out turning it or notching the windshield?

1250cfm dominator,tall deck block,madman motor plates,stock windshield:D

Brady how hard is it to change plugs on your black car?

Still hoping to see someone with a heater with the swap.... and wipers

I have NEVER seen one with the AC/Wipers with a biggun swapped in.

i dotn want a/c just heat haha I am wanting the car to still be a weekend terror once in a while never know when ull need defrost or wipers

Can anyone recomend a low rise single plane intake? I am wanting a nice single plane intake but one that isnt really tall

what kinda RPM range you looking for?

Brady how hard is it to change plugs on your black car?

My black car has a 561" short deck bbc and MadMan headers. It takes longer to gap/anti seize the plugs than to change them. 10 minutes max, all from the top.

6000 rpm with,,,, and nitrous... not sure if it matters... I imagine you want somthing that will flow the nitrous good

a BBC will be easier to work on in a Fbody than a lsx motor....

lsx motors have the heads laid out more than regular chevy motors.... so to speak

you can see that the clearance between the shock towers is almost the same because a BBC head placement is more vertical than horizontal....

hope that made sense...

Im assuming they were custom for your car?
Will he make them for anybody?
Im lookn to do KINDA the same as you, but less blower and on gas to run in NMCA. Your car is absolutely sick!

By the looks of the pictures above you will not be able to keep factory heat MAYBE whipers.

If you plan to run on stickies then your whipers not working in the rain will be the least of your problems hahaha.


I have a Holley Strip dominator and its not that high really, pretty much all single planes that I have seen are not short. Its good to 8k RPM if I remember right. Im told they have rough ports that need work/ported. Ill look at mine this winter.

Pick your intake to go with your application.

Heat is doable, but I've never seen it done because most people like me who do the swap just show it off and drag race. Wipers are easy to keep, I kept mine, but you can't go carb'd. Has to be fuel injected so you can run an elbow. Mine also fits under the stock WS6 hood after the support strut in the middle is cut out.

Yah ive decided heat can go..... so now id just like to keep wiper haha... Am looking at the edelbrock torqer intake..

You going carb?

Edelbrock torquer intake should be taken out of Production. They are OLD and poor design by todays standards.

Ill say it again, get the intake to fit your application. IE pick its power curve should match the cam and the cam should match the stall and the gears match the cam and stall, ect ect.

Fail to match everything and it will jus tbe a big motor with no go of very little go.

Engine masters magazine did a test with intakes and heads, the put some old heads on an engine and then swaped in some nice aftermarket aluminum ones and the engine made like 75hp more, no joke.

Its amazing what happens when things are not matched.

You can keep your wipers. Well Wiper, idk about others, but I have one thats longer then the stock wiper. Dont have any pics of it yet. And its got a carb on it.
