Except with more compression...All I need is a 6.4 block.

Well I happen to own a new 6.4 block. Looking to buy or swap? PM me if you want more info.

Looks like it would be pretty stout but you end up with a compression height of 1" and a rod ratio of 1.44, things get pretty tight with a big stroke in a gen III

You can't beat displacement. And a 4.25 crank over the 4.080 in the other builds will feel like a whole nuther world. I want one at 12.5:1 compression.

My 512 combo seems to have maxed out at 6.19 so far in the 1/8th...I think this would put the car in the 5's...

With the Nickle content in the BGE the side loading of a 1.44 rod ratio doesn't affect the block like it does some other makes, granted you still have the drag aspect.
Those 454's can be a monster and with the Edlebrock heads I think you can crack in to the high5's

But I'd wait till after Dec

I would assume the new 426 block.

The E-heads I have flow north of 370 at .650...With 450 cubes, I would think this thing would fly. I have to get them CC'd to figure out compression ratio. Working on a quote thru Hughes at the moment.

For cam, I am thinking right around 265 or so duration, not sure yet, but the more cubes the better. My car is not setup for high rpm, more of a lower rpm bracket type car. Curious where you bracket guys shift these things. I shift the 512 at only 6300-6400 and it typically goes 6.20 at 111mph with a 1.35 60ft.

So what happens in Dec? I would love to see one of these approach 500 cubes, that would be outrageous, and right up my alley. I am looking to do somthing different this year....
