Hello,
New to this site but love what I see so far. I'm building a 1969 Camaro with a Bill Mitchell 454 LS Warhawk...transmission is a G Force clutch assist G100 4 speed. The motor is about a month away from completion but I have found a lot of great install tips on this site already...

That engine is serious business - what kind of numbers are we talking?

This is my first LS based motor so it is hard for me to estimate numbers but it is built to similar specs that Bill Mitchell uses on his crate motors and they are in the 700-750 range. My motor has PRC 285 LS7 6-bolt heads, 11.2 CR, solid roller cam (.715/.715"....255/265), ARE dry sump, Precision Metalcraft sheetmetal manifold,etc. Looking forward to seeing some real numbers in the next 4 weeks or so....
