Thanks Ponyakr
Even if I went with a 400 block, I would not use my original RA III block, but I’m working out a deal right now with a fellow PY member on a std. bore 455, so I’m hoping that would be my base.
I figured that this was going to run at least $8000 to do it myself (as opposed to just buying a short block). $2000 for a rotating assembly, $3000 for heads, $2000 for cam/lifters, pushrods, and easily another $1000 (probably more) on having my cast iron intake ported, gaskets, fuel pump, etc.
Am I going down the right path to use the 85cc KRE heads that SD Dave prepares, as opposed to the 74cc ones? I know b-man was recommending I go with the 74cc ones when I was going to run the 428, but I figured things might be bit different with a 467.
I’ll have to take a look at that Long Island shop. Thanks for the suggestion.
