Help me build my engine.
Hi fellas, been a while sincei posted anything meaningful (Overtime gallore)
I have come into the possession of a 454 Block bored .124 over. It has been line bored, magnafluxed, and hot tanked.
I want to make roughly a 550-600 HP engine (Which i know is easy with quality parts)
I know i'll be getting a 4340 Forged Crank with a 4.250 stroke, beyond that i've just been looking around reading up on various different options and parts. Just wanted to get some opinions on the matter.

.124 over?what the hell kind of bore is that? that is over 4X a normal bore and .004 over any standard piston of any size
if that block was even any good, and you could find pistons, that would run hot as hell, you would have to use block filler in it to strengthen it, so it would run hotter
that would, at best, only be good for the track
