I'm starring down a rebuild/replace job on my Suburban's 454. Do I really want to get into the LBC my self or let a shop do it? Rebuild or new...
Think of what you call the original 1600hp engine. Similar to many family trees of Cat's other engines, they were originally a tractor or off road...
Taller pistons and ported heads. I wonder what the final compression ratio is loaded at high hp? It has to be a scary number. Remember, new...
