Awesome vid mate, brings back so many memories.I built a Scat 557 BBF with Cobra Jet Heads 15 years ago with twin Holleys.Can i ask the cam specs please ?

I would of dropped a roller in there instead of those flat tappets . It definitely frees up the friction .

Stout. I wish it was common to see wider dyno pulls but I understand you're tuning in a range by this point since that's what he said. I'd like to see a 0 x-y axis from at least as low as 2500. I wish it was a standard that this was the final dyno pull of any engine, across the widest range possible. The BBF does great at 'flat' power curves which just means more total power available across the range which means more than peak. Those CJ heads are actually great at it.

Aussies Build Top Notch Shit as Well! Love It!

What are the cam specs and how much compression are you running? I have the same heads with stock rods and bore when 10:5 compression. Never had the engine on a dyno but am guessing I have around 500HP. I plan to get a stoker kit and up the compression along with a bigger cam and am curious to see how much power I will get out of that combo.

At about 0.40 seconds is that an engine fire in the background? Lol

[biggalaxie]

This build makes me excited to see mine will do. Similar build with same heads. Seem you said heavuly ported. Do you have images of the head ports and care to share?

[rilee]

Man I want to build a 460 up like that but I don't even know where to start or how much it will set me back 😢🤣

[HISS]

Hi Matthew, please let me know what type of cam and the specs, compression, head and valve train info etc. Thank you !

[nitrostang]

What camshaft was used ? Specs Hyd cam or solid lift

I have a 72 Lincoln original 460 82, 000 original miles what would it cost to build this motor or rebuild it like this one

[collinfisher]

I have a 460
300 plus k on it so I stroke it

[darelsmith]

Just bought a 1977 Thunderbird with a 400 that I want to stoke. Is there any info on engine builders?

[colesimmons]

We’re did you find the Timming cover ?

[pm]

fuckin 30 and play with it /// that go well in my 70s f truck

[ceottey]

Is it possible to just buy one that’s already rebuilt just like this one

[ZacharyBailey]

How much would you say you got invested in it?

The guys at Engine Power, primarily (Pat Topolinski), built a 632 inch BBC and the dyno revealed
1022 hp. Jon Kasse built a 598 inch BBF 'with similar specs' to the BBC stated Pat, and the BBF made
1108 hp.The BBF made 86 more hp with 34 fewer inches. "Barely edged out" the BBC quipped Pat.
