454 with a hopped up top end in my ‘68 k10

Beach-Burban · 10-16-2020, 11:23 AM

Only owned two BBC's in my life...and the pictures I found to share are pretty crappy!

First picture: I bought this 402 from a man in 1976 to put into my '65 GTO. It came out of his '72 C/10 and was built to @400HP (a lot of power for a truck at that time).

Second picture: This '89 454 currently sits in my '72 Suburban, but will come out early next year when I have the paint and body work done. Hopefully, things will be a lot more tidy when it gets put back into the freshly detailed engine bay, so a better picture will be added here at that time!

Factory 402 in my 1971. Re-assembly in progress and hopefully completed one of these decades.

What plug wire retainers are you using?

tristan · 10-20-2020, 09:48 AM

They are NOS ones that I picked up from Frank Ham or one of the other major forum parts vendors a few years ago early in the project.
