Hmn, I have a 408 with a low compression forged assembly and LSA heads, all studs, etc... what would it take to set this 454 up for a 3.3L Whipple?

Warhawk heads are not tough.

The crank and rods would work great, just swap out the pistons.

As far as Warhawk heads not being tough, the current fastest LSX motor in the world is a Warhawk block with Warhawk heads running twin turbos. You can use other heads like All Pro's or any other brand. Just they won't use all 6 head bolts per cylinder.

PM sent to you.

I know Mast doesn't anymore, but Are you sure that WCCH no longer machines the All Pros to use all 6 head bolts on a Warhawk?
Reason I'm asking you is because I spoke to Richard 3 years ago and he said he does.

I talked to both MAST and All Pro/WCCH and neither of them told me they make heads to use all of the head bolts on the Warhawk blocks.
