Here are the specs for the engine I am about to drop into my '65 LeMans:

'68 400 block, .030 overbore and stock stroke
'68 #16 heads, stock valves with new Comp Cams springs, locks, retainers, pushrods
Comp Cams 1.65 ratio roller tip magnum rockers
Approximately 10.75:1 compression
Stock reconditioned rods, stock crank, and forged .030 over pistons
Comp Cams Xtreme Energy 284/296 adv. duration, 240/246 @ .050" lift
Edelbrock Torker II intake
Big cap HEI distributor and Summit 8mm ignition wires
Factory water pump
Holley 4160 750 cfm dual feed carb
Holley 80 gph mechanical fuel pump
Hooker Competition long tubes with 3" Hooker aerochamber mufflers

No performance numbers yet as it's still new and not in the car yet, plus I still have the original open differential so I'm not about to drag until I get a locker.

Early project phase, lots more to come...
