The 455 engines are built with stock block, crank, rods, and 6X head castings. They are assembled complete except for manifolds, distributor, valve covers, and water pump. They are painted Pontiac metallic blue unless you request otherwise. These engines make are excellent for both street & strip, they can be driven everyday and raced on the weekend. They will run premium unleaded(92-94 octane). Engine will have slight rough idle, but it will make enough vacuum to work your power brakes. Horsepower on the 455 engine is approximately 425hp.
The engines all start with a fully prepped seasoned block that is bored and honed with a headplate, new cam bearings, freeze plugs, oil galley plugs, andl dipstick tube are installed. The cranks are all ground undersize for correct bearing clearance. Rods are resized and have ARP rod bolts installed. The complete assemblies are balanced and forged pistons are installed. Cylinder heads get bronze wall guides, a competition valve job, and are milled for 9.25:1 compression. Engines are all sold outright so there is no core charge.
*Manual transmission will need to send the flywheel for balancing or we can supply you with a new steel wheel.
