Block being machined and bored out to then go through the sleeving process. Pics of the old internals. Excited to see the progress and enjoying the process!

Well all things considered like deltas from the baseline, all the little add ons on top of the 427, e85, Katechs dyno, and keeping it street friendly, im hoping for 630/550. Maybe Zach and/or Mike will see this and confirm or give me the reality ha. I hope they do.

But honestly itll be such a huge difference for me going from a stock car and my first build, it wont matter. Im not chasing records and I just wanna have fun and enjoy the build and the experience of working with Katech as well. Of course the numbers are always great to see and the cherry on top, but ill try and focus more on deltas.

Gonna be an absolute BEAST! Love the updated build pics!

Some engine pics for you gents of the completed 427. Gets thrown on the engine dyno next week. Im guessing 705 hp

Any other guesses?!?

Car will then get assembled for tuning and testing. Decided to also do the anderson composites T2 hood and let Zach and the team continue to work their magic. Cant wait for the finished product.

Oh its going to be a blast for sure. Between the engine, supporting upgrades for it, and chassis/suspension components, its going to be a riot.

Hello,

I have a bone stock 2022 SS 1LE, I've been looking at this katech engine package for awhile. Stumbled on this thread, your build is what I'm seriously considering in the future. Just trying to figure out the finances lol. But it would be unique and have the ultimate SS 1LE Street/Track car.

It took me a few years of research and contemplating to figure out what I wanted exactly, but thats what Zach and I ultimately landed on was the ultimate Street/Track build. Funny enough this is my first ever build so I decided to wait and go for it all, all at once ha.
