Default 555" build for *Bruiser*

The 555" motor we built for Doug's (Snowman) C-3 AKA as Bruiser is finally hitting the stands and the net!

It's going to be a 3 part series and the first part is on the shortblock. The second part will be all about the cams and head choices and the third will be all the details on the 2 days of dyno testing.

This was truly a homebuilt motor and it survived 35+ dyno pulls!!

Take a look and be gentle on me...it's my first time to write articles like this!! Plus we need hits on the site to show folks like big nasty street motors! Article starts on page 41.

(I think you'll have to sign up to the Amos site. The articles will be in the Corvette Enthusiast magazine. )

Thanks,

JIM
