    502 big block?

    My budget is whatever I want it to be, it just takes longer to save for whatever I want. ‍haha that’s why I mentioned 3 combos lol

    502 big block?

    I found a 502 block for sale $400 looks good. Casting no. 10237300. Seems like a good candidate for cheap 500 horse with the little I know about BBC. I don’t know much about these, but if I were to choose a big block Chevrolet, I can think of 3 general applications, forgive my terminology, so...

    Thank you, I appreciate your help.

    4l60e TQ and HP Question

    I’m well inclined to hands on work. By hard, I mean, is it objectively a more time consuming and difficult task than the average Saturday job. By alone, I mean is it achievable by myself or would it be considerably easier with another’s help or is it best having someone else do it. Also… you...

    4l60e TQ and HP Question

    Not sure how accurate calculators are online, but with this exact setup, I got a 93 octane pump gas, peak HP at 379hp 5000rpm and peak torque at 3800 around 420 lb/ft, according to online calc. I called comp and summit to ensure all things are compatible, they suggested a 2200+ stall converter...

    4l60e TQ and HP Question

    i didnt ask whether he included those parts because I can only text him currently.. but I did ask how much it can reliably handle up to HP and TQ wise, he said 450-500. He’s a close friend, I trust him. My main concern now, is how to match my engine build, cam specs and application of my truck...

    4l60e TQ and HP Question

    I understand all the adjustments and checking all that. I just mean, do I got to worry about anything like, bearings or shims, or any of that junk while I’m in there? Like a “I’m already in here so might as well do this” type deal, I’ve never personally taken one apart and rebuilt it. And IMHO...

    4l60e TQ and HP Question

    When swapping these to 4.56. Can I just do ring and pinion or do I have to worry about anything else? Can I just buy the ring and pinion set for $120 and do it on a lift in an hour or so?

    4l60e TQ and HP Question

    most of my romps would be in the 2000-4000 range, the torque rang it is built completely and has about 5k miles max, brand new front to back. I’m hoping it is good, paid $2500 for it.

    4l60e TQ and HP Question

    I am the guy with the 4l60e and Holley electric choke carb adapter for the TPS :)) lol I have this trans in my 95 K1500 short wheelbase single cab. Has 33’s and it’s leveled with torsion bars. We broke it twice before getting it fully rebuilt and gone through by a local guy near us “Reagin...

    Top end build worth it?

    So I’ve found a new cam for sale on marketplace. It is a flat tappet.. but it is $150 new lol sooo, I’m willing to take the risk, I’m thinking I could just do a small cam swap with my intake and carb I got now? How hard is just a cam swap? Do I need different push rods, rockers or springs or...
