Sweet,Can we get more details ?

dive block, 4.5 scat , 6.7 scat rods , probe dish pistons, 10.5 to 1 comp, cam spec In 258 @ .050 Ex 262 @ .050 both .650 lift cut 110 lsa. scj heads cut per Scotts web site, trick flow 4500 intake and a 1050 quick fuel. Hoping for a stumble puller going in a 63 galaxie with patc stage 3 transmission, 2500 billet converter, 9 inch with 3.70 and a ride tech four link. Any guesses on hp and torque numbers? Going on engine dyno in a couple of weeks.

Guess..... 735 hp

Guess 675hp

700+ if it's built and tuned right

I am hoping for 650. Just bought a spear plate and a taper spacer to try on the dyno. Already thinking your right on the stall. Any good spark plug recommendations ?

My guess:

720hp

685tq

I like the AR3934 with 10.5-1 but 3923 work find and are cheaper

Be sure to put breather[s] on those valve covers.

will do thanks again lem

750 HP, 685 TQ , Tuned Up !!

That will get it done!   

Where the hell do I plumb the brake booster? Or am i dreaming this thing will have vacuum.

Stick hose in the carb!!! It'll suck the booster right off.

Brake boosters have a check valve so that you have a reserve of air that will build up during cruising. If you can use a larger carb spacer it can be drilled and tapped for your PS line. Or drill and tap the back of the carb flange.

Thanks for the ideas. Spacer will have to do dont have the balls to drill out the carb base.

Very interesting I like it. Is the cam a flat tappet or hydraulic roller?

solid flat tappet.

Guessing by the CID and your cam spec's it will have some vacuum, though probably not alot. You could drill and tap, for a fitting between the carb and the intake, on a spacer plate, and install a barb fitting. If you where joking around, never mind.  

no i wasn't, but already drilled the carb. (hands still shakin) thanks tho

Your engine looks very nice, and the 63 should run really good. When you get it running, if you have a vacuum guage, I would be interested in what kind of vacuum it actually pulls at idle, and the idle RPM? With the cubic inch displacement, and the cam your are running, I would wager , it will be higher than most would expect. You can also add a vacuum canister, if you are not happy with your brake pedal sensitivity. PS: I did not see the second page, or someone posted before I did, and I missed the posts, recomending the spacer, glad you got the base drilled OK, I did one before, and it is a scarey operation like you said.

625 / 625 all done before 6000 rpm, still nice motor. Put manual brakes on it.
