honestly, i dont remeber jack when it comes to the specs of the engine, im still going through paperwork to find info. I easily have 5k into the setup when i built it in winter 2000/2001. I am pretty sure its an all forged bottom end.

i wanna say compression ratio is around 11:1, im looking into it
It was called the street master engine when i bought it and rated at 425hp. i bought the long block without the valvetrain or sheetmetal for 1900. the valvetrain then cost me about 1100(cam lifters pushrods roller rockers timing gears) and then add on the MSD ignition intake carb sheetmetal accesories...
One thign about the motor is it NEEDS the valves adjusted bigtime. When i sold the car with this engine, no one knew about the colid lifters requiring frequent adjustments. it went about 10k miles without it. When i got the motor back, i popped the valvecovers and all the rockers were out of adjustment so the valve werent opening all the way. I believe this motor made 273RWHP for the last owner, so figure thats at least 325 flywheel, with the valves properly adjusted and carb/timing and tuned in that should go up a noticeable amount. i was also informed the weiend stealth manifold is holding it back and a dart one would help to match the heads and all.

and for 1200 this is a killer deal... i just dont want it around anymore, all my future builds will be using LS-based motors.
