![]() Why 600 horse? If you cant hook it, it doesnt matter how much you have. Not cuttin you down but here is what I would run if I was building a Big block.. First.. get a 460 crank and put in it. Bore .60 over ( GET A GOOD RADIATOR ) The 460 crank and the 429 crank are the same other that stroke to make up for the cubic inches. Will fit in a 429 block. Blocks are same. Get a good set of "truck" rods, for 460, 40cc Dome pistons for Cobra Jet aluminum heads or DOVE cast stock heads, Torker II or Performer RPM intake. Cam with lift above .700", 850 Holley D.P. Carb. That should get you close to your desired Hp range. I advise that you get the DOVE heads instead of aluminum. Ive worked with a truck load of both sets of heads. The aluminum heads are junk unless you plan on turning over 7 grand for an extended period of time. I suggest the DOVE heads, good set of springs, stainless valves and a professional port job with a good set of big tube headers with 3 inch exhaust fillin out the combo. Hope this helps..
