SS 454 p/u truck need engine suggestions
My boss' SS 454 with 101K mile is about to let go ..... lower end rattle. Oh ... it's in the bottom end - NO DOUBT.
He's recently changed out TBI to carb/intake/HEI/MSD ...... and it ran VERY WELL I might add.
So he's a hard driver & the other day he asked me to come out to hear the sound the engine is making. I know right off but didn't want to be the bearer of the bad news.
I tell him let a "professional" check it out. They come up with the same thoughts I had - bottom end a bit loose & making a rapping sound. No not that kinda rap.
I'm now looking for a crate engine .....any suggestions(54HO, 502, 572)/vendors?
Help me direct him.
Thanks.
