You guys are sissies!
94x64 with custom (2 ring?) pistons
A set of Heads Up! welded heads and intakes, narrow stems and possibly LS1 springs.
Titanium valves and rods.
Crank would be a Bryant or Moldex with wing shaped counterweights.
roller cam with net lift over .800 @ the valve.
Vacuum pump
engine would have to be able to spin 10k.
4.86r/p and close gears (and a couple extra in the trailer for when they let go)in a 67 sedan for ss/fs

[Jim Ratto]

they had all that stuff in the 80's?

[The Ideaman]

Okay, everything but the vacuum pump.  Instead, it will have an oil accumulator and Vasco triples.
Should be pretty streetable with the low gears.

Forget the egg fitting thru the port, you could suck the whole chicken thru those ports   Nice work

I bet that thing idled at 2k, at least.  Heard stories of Comp Eliminator motors with 4" bores and 2.7" strokes that won't take a load on a dyno under 5-6k.

Here's what my 1776cc looked like in the early 80s.

Cima 90.5 with total seal rings
Heads by ported The Head Shop. Cant's remember valve sizes. Berg Shafts and valve adjusters.
Berg Counteweighted Crank.
Carillo Rods (Stock Length)
14 lb flywheel
VZ35 cam
H Case with all the typical mods done by rimco
48IDAs on Skat-Trak talls
1 3/8" merged 4 Tuned header
Offset cooler
Bosch 010
Red Coil

Hmmmm, I went a bit different way trying to fool the "weber" crowd.
90.5 Cimas
Berg 69mm crank
Polished rods
balanced toe to toe.
heads by DOUG Berg
massive non welded ports
38X42
matched manifolds with..... Tah Dah... Kadrons!
Yes, kadrons.
Doug tore them apart and jetted and gutted them just so.
This motor in my 63' vert blazed!
I however did not build this motor myself I bought it.  I bought it from a local tranny builder that was low on funds named Dave Foltz.  Is he still around?
This was the fastest Kadron motor... OMG it was fun to have the guys lift my decklid and immediately snap to say "I'll race yah yeah!"  Then weber boy would be sad.  granted I was not running against 48's.  But the 1776's with 42's and 44's, I was in.  Now Dyno Don and I had some days discussing whose Kadron motor was faster....  My vert or his Notch.
