Its not like you are trying and putting serious effort into your program. I count a Victor cut in half, tons of pics on that. A custom Tiger made to fit HPs. A BOP and a Gustram tunnel ram. You are chasing something or lighting money on fire.
You posted that you have the 2500$ billet pistons and the 1500$ rings to go with them. Had a lightweight billet Scat crank and now a USA made 8 counterweight deal. And top shelf rods. I don't remember steel or aluminum. And had a 50mm cam and think you now have 55mm. I bet you have to end up with close to 20K in your new heads and custom intake.
Its going to scream whatever you end up with. Looking forward to hearing the big number it puts up.
The 461 will be a 650-670HP pump gas deal.
Never had a light weight Scat crank, never had a 50mm, all the intakes i bought used (but since you counting intakes ive also owned a T1, T2, RPM, SD, and Performer intake), rings pack wasn't that expensive.
How is that you think you know so much about what im doing but have no clue how much hp it made?
Others have have made 800+ with stock block and hp heads, why not you?

OK, so which brand lightweight crank was it, Crower ?? Had some bearing issues and thought it contributed to them.
I have quite a collection of intakes myself. Need to sell some.
I have a clue how much it made. You told me in a post years ago. I was impressed. Higher than I thought.
800HP? 800HP NA stock blocks eventually crack up the middle. Whitmores last engine will live a long happy life. When the 540 gets done 461 will end up in the 79 street TA with the HOs on it.
Heck, when I am done really racing I think I will sell the E head top end, put the High Ports on the 540. Make a custom grind 55mm solid flat tappet cam, run some Mopar .904 solids and drive it out to the track when I am a geezer and run high 10 and drive home.
Not shy about my plans. Whats yours with this new engine ? It will make big power not even trying.

No crank that i have sold was a "lightened" crank, they have all been heavy turds.
