The 650 461 Chevrolet, 10.3:1 pump gas friendly, Gm iron 990 heads marine spec worked by BRE (bronze guides, stainless Ferrea 2.19 & 1.88 valves, hardened exhaust seats, Stg 3 port & polish) Dart single plane intake, GM 4 bolt block completly machined by BRE (line honed, index surfaced, bored & torque plate honed), Scat 6.385 h beam rods, SRP 10:1 small dome pistons, GM std 4 stroke steel crank, Crower 1.7 rockers, Crower std solid roller lifters, Crower pushrods, BRE home made oil pan (built from a pickup oil pan and modified to control windage and add a few quarts), Schneider custom solid roller camshaft, Holley 1050 dominator, and a 175hp plate system for those times you need a passing gear. The idea behind this engine, besides being the test mule for the shop, was a budget oriented, all gm iron, pump gas friendly, RELIABLE, river hotrod engine that a regular working man can afford to have built and use. In a very heavy gullwing, turning a worked Berk B impeller and new style inducer, it turns 6100-6200 (depending on air) and 6800ish on the 175 shot... which is 96mph on motor and 106mph on bottle in the gullwing. Thus far... we have 3 entire seasons and dozens of nitrous bottles through it and no wrenches have touched it other than to change the oil and check the valve adjustment a couple times per season. (SEE: The 650 in action video... well... to see it in action.)
