Love it dude. I have a 70 454 rebuilt one with a holley 750 and a 555cam life. Does yours burn any oil? Mine burns about a quart every couple months and just wondering if thats normal for big blocks? This is my first big block so still learning.  THanks.

[hioctane33]

It may be a little bit loose........depends on how much you are riding it I guess. Thats a nice number on the cam. Mine is a 540/540 herbert

You have a gorgeous Chevelle. Is it original or partial or full restoration? i have a 71 ss i'm restoring at the moment i have it ends up looking half as good as yours.

[hioctane33]

thanks. my cousin ordered this car new and we got it in 77. it has not been restored, just painted, interior is still like it was when it was new. cloth bench seats, headliner, and original carpet.

What's the name of that color blue?

one of the best looking/functional 454 chevelle i've ever seen... congrats and greetings from venezuela!!! Long live to the classic big blocks, and you did a great combination beneath the hood for sure...

I know all about keeping things "stock" looking but if you had this engine built to LS-6 specs, why didn't you put LS-6 badging on it?

[TheRtv83]

flawless

@jalalaumad

they made lots of SS cars with bench seats, they are pretty common.

[SOFSoldier1]
