Big Block Chevy
This has been a rollercoaster of a build, but it’s finally built. Fresh block, Pistons, Bearings and pretty much everything apart from the heads crank and rods! It was so tired this motor we were shocked it was still a torque monster! There was a huge list of issues from it having gone down to copper on the bearings to the main caps being too tight and even a camshaft that had been pounded on that bad it was 6 thou bent! The list goes on, looking forward to seeing what power it makes.
