    If your 100% keen on a new motor. I know of a LEGIT 550HP 355 for sale. MCEComp built the motor. (Refer to link above and current STREET MACHINE mag).

     

    Its a a no shit big dollar motor. Has TTB on it also. His lookin to sell. It’s only done dyno time

    Maybe u could sell ur current motor complet and buy his??? Will be FAR cheaper then building.

    Dont be fooled that big stall can’t be driven on the street with nice manners. I have 0 issues with my 5200.

     

    Cast heads can make that power esp with e85 fuel. Come in cheaper then alloys most likely. However if you were to go alloy id be going -9. They are far superior to anything come make.

    Todd Foley drive his 620HP 383 on the street. His even gone as far as driving from Geelong to Heathcote busting out a 9 and then crusing home.

    Tony will do it with ease. His done it plenty times before.  However allow the better part of 15k and then some. He will do it with his CAST heads and a nice HYD roller. Will be strictly e85 with over 13.5:1  Id assume, going off some other stuff I’ve seen him build.

    600hp will need a twin plate clutch. Personally stalled auto is your friend when ur talking this sort of HP

    I dare say it will be there entry level 383 motor.

    Comp won’t be massive and it will be there ported cast heads.

    Could be as cheap as milling heads to increase comp and throw in a bump stick to suit.

    All depends what u want out of it. Like manta said (name blank), with

    bigger power comes a lot of extra costs. T56 might be good, but is the clutch…

    it all all spirals out of control. Hahah

    But you know what crate motor it is don’t you?

    All comes down to budget in the end.

    Supposed to be a COME CSBR436. Power is all over by 5300. When he hurt it at powercruise maybe it had something to do with the cam and as a consequence of work done the cam timing is out.

    Its prob making 400 ish HP at the fly with that cam.

    Dont run the tank below 1/4 and you will be right. But it’s one of those things where it comes down to personal preference.

    pump 98,near bang on 400rwhp for me(n/a) interested in what people are using & where there putting it but what ever you got & your happy with it i was going to use 040 bosch in tank to custom serge above diff with 044 hanging off that with std 5/16 lines to reg then 3/8 to rails, return to serge,with serge overflow to main tank.sounds easy a.

    A single Intake walbro will meet your needs.

    However

    If surge is the go. Stock in tank pump to surge. Single 044 to rails, factory Bosch reg. Return to surge. Surge overflow to main tank.  All stock fuel lines. Done.

    Live and learn. It’s not a big deal anyway. It’s still a GOOD motor. Just not as powerful as you thought

    Dale and Tony are 2 of the best in their business in SA.

    Too many experts…
