Why not more 454's?

[ss wrecker]

I wish I had a 92' 454SS truck... Those were the fastest trucks GM ever made lol... or even a 70's model vette that had a big block, man those were fast!!

Hey Mic... aren't you running stock rod and main bearings in that POS motor of yours? lol... and who knows what else lol

Funny you say that I've got a 90 model sitting in the backlot that we impounded now it's a future project for my dad and I. Free truck lol

Plans are to use a motor we have in a dually here that was running low 8s until it had an underhood fire so the guy gave us the title. The truck is already lowered at least 2/4

Well I feel the most important thing is weight you take a 454lsx engine and a 454 bbc and compare them and all that weight is on the nose of your car so that effects everything not just racing. Plus you look at the ported BBC heads the ports dont even flow as much as a ported LS7 head unless you spend $5000 on a set of big dukes and then you have custom pistons and all that crap. I feel dollar for dollar pound for pound and LS based engine is an all around better package. You can make the same power with less weight and less money. A 500lb lsx 454 making 750hp is rally like having 800+ with the weight saving because the car will 60ft that much faster with less tire. I ahve always noticed everyone with a big block wants to compare there 400hp 396 to a Pat Musi 800ci pro stock engine when the Sh$T hits the fan. I had a 370ci LS with a 90mm turbo that I drove 110 miles each way to the track and on 93 octane pump gas and ran 8.90's I was fastest enough that I could have won the quick eight at my local track several times. Thats pretty sad cause they were 85% BBC engines.
