Where are you located? Budget will pretty much determin your build. If you can afford it, rotating assy for more displacement, aluminum heads, performance intakae and probably larger carb, and the right cam for your combination.

Here is an engine build a guy did. Basic build, 2 bolt block 800 hp!!
1. DIVE 2 bolt main block with offset ground cast production crank. Wet sump and no vacuum pump.
2. 6.800" Eagle rods with JE pistons and a 12.8:1 compression ratio.
3. Motorsport/Edelbrock Victor intake manifold for the Dominator carbs. Plus a 1" open spacer and a 1" HVH Super Sucker spacer. 2" total.
4. Biggs 1050 3 circuit carb with 92 sq. jets on race gas.
5. Ford Duraspark SVO by MSD distributor
6. Comp Cams roller cam. It was an old one of Lem's that had been reground with the following specs; 275*/285* @ .050", .759"/.762" lift, LSA 111*, and intake centerline of 111*.
7. Ported head flow #'s
Intake avg.
.200=148, .300=233, .400=301, .500=335, .600=357, .700=373, .800=378 cfm.
Exhaust avg.
.200=116, .300=147, .400=172, .500=184, .600=222, .700=232, .800=234 cfm.
800Hp @ 6700.
Torque was 680 @ 5200
Just a rather basic 512 CID engine and I'm sure there are several of you that can and have done better, none the less, this was a fairly good engine and I attribute it's good numbers to the camshaft and intake port flow.
THIS IS THE KIND OF INFO THATS ON 460FORD.COM:idea:
cheers
I watched the above engine go through the pulls on the dyno, saw a bit of the engine's insides too. With a little plenum work, another carburetor and a couple hundred more rpm, 850hp could be have been had.
Firefighter if you're in south Indiana and truly financially prepared to have a badass 700+ hp engine built, then PM me or give me a call and I can hook you up.
