Re: Siamesed and dropped plenum on the bay
He should take a government job (useless). Because he couldn't build an LT5 for horse hockey. My BK 415 was held together with JB weld. When it was taken apart the tolerances were very lenient to say the least ,and burned 20/50 oil like I drink water. But on the positive side that 415 laid down a good 558 rwhp.
---------------------------------------------------------------------- Kurt the only reason why your car ran so good was because Aaron (SGC) had his hands on it. With the help of Mr. Greg V's porting also may I add. Last edited by FU; 04-21-2011 at 09:25 AM. |

 Would love to buy the parts to put together a 415, but building a garage and have family visiting from England this year so nothing spare in the kitty. Won't even make BG this year

Will definitely post a few pics when it's done. Hardest thing has been finding someone to do the slab. I've done a bit of concrete work in the past but not enough to feel confident enough to tackle that part. Seems no-one needs any work around here!

Re: Siamesed and dropped plenum on the bay
So what would be needed in addition to that stuff to have a complete engine? How much of my stock 94LT5 could be used?

Re: Siamesed and dropped plenum on the bay
Years ago this stuff would have went fast as hell. Times are tough out there with no let up in sight. Slow economy ? The economy is stalled and won't start !

Re: Siamesed and dropped plenum on the bay
no kidding.
It took me a little bit to sell the 402. Once the ball got rolling there was 3 buyers. |
