Can't go wrong with a 460 stroker following advice of Paul Kane and Scott Johnston. They know their stuff. They both helped me a bunch with my 521.

No mention of fuel system. What did you use? I recently talked to performance shop owner that laughed when I told him I was running a Holley Blue in my 514. Now I'm confused. Cause he was right. On the strip it dies at 4500 to 5000 RPM. He suggested the bowls on my 1050 are NOT getting filled. I'm stil not sure I'm not short air ..... but curious about your air/fuel system, cause ...... really ...... physics is physics..........

I am using an Aeromotive A1000 pump with their fuel pump controller for street use..The controller does not let the pump kick in to full capacity until 3000 RPMs..Works great..

Nope no PCV valve..I have read that several people have had problems with a PCV on a stroked 460..The more air it can breath the better..
