500 caddy vs 454 chevy

[hollywoodhillbilly]

Which would be the better of the 2 to build. Im wanting 11 ish compression. Turn 6000-7500 ish. And put it in a truck with a turbo 400 trans and np205 transfer case and be turning 35s

you would have a lot more $$$ into the caddy too turn that many rpms

[fordrunner]

The caddys valve train sucks and won't hold up to the rpm's otherthen that iI like the 500ci monster lots of tork huge mains

[Jjay78]

500 nicer low end but for that kinda rpms go chevy.. you can get a lot more for a lot less

The caddi block isnt strong enough and youd have a heck of a time not breaking cranks. Go 454 and youl be happy
