I have for sale a 454 big block chevy. 2 bolt mains, initial intake and peanut port heads. Castings say it came out of a mid '70s big car (caprice, impala, etc) - block casting: 361959. The heads currently on the motor are initial peanut port heads - casting 346236. The intake is the initial quadrajet intake casting number: 465839. I purchased this for a task but chose to go another route. The primary bearings looked excellent, compression inspected ok. I have actually never ever run it, and it might most likely use a freshening up.
I also have a set of 781 (real oval port - not peanut - casting 336781) heads that have actually been entirely rebuilt. The 781s have bronze guide liners, brand-new Ferrea exhaust valves, brand-new Elgin consumption valves (stock sizes 2.06 / 1.72), new teflon seals, brand-new studs, brand-new stock springs, brand-new locks, they were resurfaced, magnafluxed, std valve job. all done 2000 mile back by the previous owner.
I also have a Holley 750 vacuum secondary carb. I will certainly offer the heads and carb together for an additional $350 if interested. I will not sell the heads without the motor - sorry all or nothing.
This would be a terrific start for a mountain motor or a truck repower. I got this for a task however chose to go another route. Please email just - I've had a lot of scams by phone!
