Chevy ZZ572/620 Deluxe - Big performance with huge torque

Chevy orange on this monster lets you know it's got serious Rat power! The 572/620 hp deluxe brings 650 lb.-ft. of torque for a thrill ride you won't forget. Based on a 4 bolt main block with a 4.560" bore, the rest of the internals are forged for reliable power. GMP added a single plane manifold that is port matched to the rectangular port aluminum heads. A roller cam handles the valve movement with .632 inches of lift. This cam provides an aggressive idle that begs to be revved! This engine comes with an oil pan (with windage tray) to carburetor, including an 850-cfm Demon four-barrel, HEI distributor, red spark plug wires, aluminum short-style water pump, and automatic transmission flexplate.
