Got a chance to yank the engines this past weekend. Tore one down yesterday. Everything looked great. headgaskets looked brand new. Leakdown results were 10% or less, with leakage past rings. Valves sealing great. No signs of detonation, valve tuliping, or anything like that. Probably could have ran a few more seasons as is.
Always got slack from guys from running small blowers(too much heat), no intercoolers, single carb setup, etc, but it's been working that way for a long time, this summer was 7lbs of boost. Keep in mind these are only 460CI engines. Don't plan to change the recipe whatsoever, other than some wideband tuning of the jetting, and port matching the intakes to the heads, as there is quite a mismatch between the ports. I set the carbs up fat, to be safe, but wan't to get them dialed in a little better as to not wash down the cylinder walls with gas.
Other than that, I'd like to clean up the rigging and do some polishing of parts.

Joe, use the Hellfire rings, get them .005 over and file fit em. Those pistons look a wee bit too rich.

Yes, I knew I was fat on the jetting. Plus last time they were ran, did a 20 minute idle into burns ditch harbor, then another 10+ minutes of idling in the ditch the next morning. Id imagine just cleaning up the afr would help alot. Never fouled a plug, but worried about diluting the oil and wearing those cylinder walls....
I saw those hellfire rings by speedpro, supposedly a good ring to use for nitrous, blowers, etc? Do you still have those b&m intakes Frank? I may be interested

I can`t believe you`re running such a small blower, and only a single carb?! No intercoolers?! etc...

Waxing the boat and paying the credit card company for all the gas and food from the summer season! It's hard work boating 6 times a week all summer long!
