Had my first start up on the rebuilt 460 today. It was great having it start right up and idle on the first go round. Here is a short video.

Thanks Red. It is just running straight stock exhaust manifolds but no pipes or mufflers. The cam is mild and I'm guessing 350-375 h.p., maybe more with the headers on. Stock for these heads and block is around 330.
man it sounds great, I can't wait till the mufflers are on ours, hopefully it sounds as good as we're looking for.
Looks and sounds good Steve!!!! Must be nice to be outside doing that, current temp here is -5 and piles of white stuff all over the ground!!!!:CRY:
Dave- I don't know how you do it, I would get claustrophobic.Quote:

It's those "sick days" that I have to spend in the house that drive me crazy!!! (or would that be crazier???):LOL::LOL:Quote:

Dave don't know how you do it! Must have a heated shop!:LOL:
Ken I heard it has been beautiful down there, per my in-laws.
Red what kind of mufflers are you going to use?
It was in the 80's yesterday. Motor sounds great, I bet your neighbors are really happy. :LOL:
Ken
Yeh, thats why I waited until mid day, to do it! Wait until I start painting, then they'll really love me!:LOL::LOL::LOL:
Sounds really good Steve. Always a moral booster when you can fire them up and hear them run. :D Makes all those long days and nights worthwhile.
