The camshaft was a hydraulic roller, it was one of our custom grinds.

Nice.. Did you go solid.. Hydr roller m,flat tappets.. ? I just had similar numbers with the motor I had built... I went hydr flat tappets.. My first attempt.. But I wonder how long the cam will hold up.. Now it's done and feel I should have went hydr roller for the extra 400$

Hydraulic roller cam is what we used. You can make good HP numbers with out the need of huge durations numbers with the hydraulic roller cam. Keep's the engine very very drivable for the customer.

This motor went into my '79 Chev short box - this is the second engine CNC has done for me - previously they built a 421 SBC stroker for my Boss Hoss bike - this BB is a tire shredder!!! With 3.25 gears, 33X21.50X15 MT on the back - it smokes them at 30mph - from a stop - smokes them them trhough 1st and 2nd and a nice chirp into 3rd-----awesome motor. And like my 421 SB, it is tight, dry, smooth and is a daily driver - best of all - it runs on 91 octane all day long :)
