Which catfish?? Hardtop 1,100 mile HOSS, '02,blk, A4,1LE or ZL1?

If it's the ZL1 it will be the only one to be a phase I, II and III. Plus phase III Supercharged. And now, possibly the only 500 CI ZL1. Of course it won't technically be a GMMG ZL1 anymore. At any rate, it will have an interesting history!

How did I miss this. 495 ci's !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Too bad you didn't talk him into doing the 100 mm inlet and paper gasket. As stated though, customers money, he makes the rules. You guys at Vengeance are having too much fun.

RON: Any idea on what this will make ?? What would you expect ?? 550 rwhp 575 rwtq ? Just a guess, but that large stroke should yield more tq then hp wouldn't it ??

I would surely hope a 495 would make in the 600+ range, 550 would be the first pull untuned I would expect....

They said the motor is going to be restricted by the 92 fast though so I guessed on the low side.

What about the motor that's in the c6Rs, wasn't that almost 400ci and a billet aluminum block as well.

Man, massive cubes must be fun with all that torque.

That being said, we have a customer that wants something a little out of the ordinary. This build definately suits his needs

World Products Warhawk Block
Callies Crank- 4.500 Stroke!!!!
Callies 6.440 Connecting Rods
Wiseco 4.185 Bore Pistons
TrickFlow 235cc CNC Cylinder Heads- Set up for Solid Roller/massaged by Brian Tooley
Jesel Roller Rockers
Vengeance Custom Camshaft- Solid
ARP Top To Bottom
Felpro Custom Head Gaskets


Going on the Engine Dyno sometime next week if all goes well... This is a STREET motor. Customer is looking for insane torque on pump gas!!!
looks like a strong motor. i always like Vengeance work.

I have a question for you Ron, why you always use the LS1 TFS 235cc heads for 427ci+ LSX strokers? why you don't use the GM LS7 heads with light touch up (light porting)?

do the LS1 TFS 235cc heads produce more power or more torque than the GM LS7 heads?

thanks.

I'd take a set of TFS 235cc heads over LS7 heads any day off the week. It's not all about flow numbers. That's what a lot of people seem to be missing. If this engine doesn't make over 600 rwhp theres's something wrong. The FAST 92mm will restrict it some, but not as much as people think. Vengeance has already done quite a few 600+ rwhp cars with a FAST 90mm that were much smaller cubic inch engines.
