6.3 chevy-engined monster landrover

Post by griffman »

hey fellas - new to the forum

Thought you might like to see the startup of my 6.3 chevy stroker in my little landrover 90

No exhaust as yet - as you can tell.

spec as follows
4 -bolt main block from my overfinch discovery(RIP)
Forged eagle stroker crank with keith black pistons etc.
Edelbrock heads, inlet, cam,750 carb, roller rockers etc.

On the bench it made 380 bhp aand 460lbs of twist

Thanks for the warm welcome from senior members - my landy has had a new chassis and a total rebuild - up-rated gearbox, axles, brakes, diffs etc.

There is a thread on V8 section of Landyzone - see link below

had a TVR 4.3 in there before which was a hoot but after the overfinch disco finally gave in to corrosion I thought it was time to build a true monster.

going for exhaust on friday, trimmer on Monday and MOT at end of next week.

Will keep you all posted
