...and i'll throw in a SBC engine stand with it.

Engine is set up for extrenally balanced, so you would need a ext. balanced flywheel. The balancer on the front was bought new from GM and lists for a 400ci impala. I would love to tell you all the engine and cam specs, but to be honest, i lost that info in the past 6 years since I built it. However, a while back I contacted Speed-o-motive with my order number and they can fax me the info on the long block. Camshaft was a custom grind through Doug herbet performance, and the cam card went when i sold the car and i never saw it again.

I would recommend just pulling it apart and going through asll the gaskets and every thing like i was going to once i found a project car for it. I also recommend switching to a Dart intake manifold AND MOST importantly, the valves NEED to be adjusted. The 2 people who had the car after i built it did not know about the solid lifters and never adjusted the lash.

 

do u know the compression, or if the internals are forged?

 

as of right now, i dont remember, i'm looking for the order paper i had and then i'll contact speed-o-motive to get the full specs.
