You will be really well off if you can find one with 4 bolt mains *take off the oil pan and look at the number of bolts in the main bearing caps* 4 bolts are stronger then 2. What were you planning to run bolt on wise?

and some quick knowledge brought to you by your local google

I think that would give me plenty of power.

I got a 408ci SBF making around 570 ft/lbs and 500hp ill sell ya

But half of what is in here is technical stuff that should be searchable in a thread....

The other half is pure BS which is what it should be...lol

Just my $.02.
