...I'll be buttoning this up tomorrow and dropping it into my '71 Chevelle Convertible.
  A few numbers: 4.31 bore X 4.25 stroke (496 c.i.d.) 10.0:1 Cam duration 243/257 @ .050; lift .570/.554 int/exh All forged rotating stock. Estimated 607HP / 570 lb.-ft., but I'll be choking it with an Edelbrock Performer 2.0 intake for a few weeks. HP/TQ numbers above are estimated for a Victor Jr. I'm actually considering an RPM Air Gap which (surprisingly to me) should bump those numbers up. Yeah, it's a my daily driver.  Nelson V. |

it won't fit in the C4 all that easily... sucks... more than likely would also bend the frame like a pretzel.

OK, one more teaser pic. I gotta get back to work now that the sun is peaking out.
(Oops, I forgot to order tall valve covers. My GM Performance covers don't clear the roller rockers. I thought I lucked out when my buddy had these old Holley covers laying around. Too bad, they don't fit either.)  |

Technically, they clear the rockers. But take a look at the first pic. The adjusting nuts/studs protrude about an inch beyond the top of the arm. No biggie. I got some shiny new polished covers yesterday. |
