I just finished up putting a 468 in it over my Christmas break from work. Flat top pistons, rv cam....should have a little more than the stock 454. Hopefully it does not make the fuel mileage go the wrong direction. Now if this white stuff would go away and I could get out and test it......spring is just around the corner...I hope.
