440
have been keen on doing another BB for my ute for some time now. last one was a 383.
have read a lot of posts and articles by AndyF and the 451 or 470 takes my fancy. problem is trying to find a 400 block. i live on the other side of the planet in New Zealand and
have had no luck looking for a 400 block as yet. the 440 is easier to find so may end up going that way.
my ute is a A body and will fab my own fender well headers so making it fit is not so much an issue.
how much hp can one expect from a 440 with forged crank, good rods, pistons, 240 or 270 TF heads or eddy rpm's, good cam, intake, carb. already have a built 727 ready to go. this will be street/strip.
input and recommendations on parts etc would be great. cheers
