Nothing wrong with a long stroke for FI.

Perhaps the best turbo builder in the world does 4.125 stroked 441ci and 4.250 stroked 454ci.

$36,000
454 LSX iron Twin Turbo...4.250 stroke.....complete set-up
1175 hp on 91 pump gas
1650 hp on race gas and 14 psi

Yea, you can say we had to do a "little" cutting. It almost made me shed a tear watching them cut on this NEW vette. Then again, once she runs the # at the track, it will all be worth it.

Excellent and I agree - great project and super high quality. Mr. 427, been following your build thread for a few months but the mod shut it down before it was finished. Did you open another build thread?

Sorry for the hyjack.

Topside of motor is pretty much finished







Shifter is in



Installed 3rd nexxus guage to keep track of trans temps.

All thats left is to try to figure out to how get exhaust on the car, install the rollbar, and put the interior back together.:thumbs:
