Default Picks of my ERL block...
454.. It's up to Julio/Cartek to work his magic now

It was a long wait, but I'm sure it will be worth it.

I asked Julio what heads he wanted to put on it, and he said he's had great results with the L92 heads (tektrans car - 9.5@138) . He is reworking them for the larger bore etc..

I was willing to go Mast/TFS or LS7, but he likes the LS3 heads.

Hey that looks just like my ERL 454! I'm waiting for the head studs from WCCH but I got my L92 stage 3 heads back already. I'm really interested in what your numbers will be.

I know the guys at Cartek will do a great job.
