dude, don't you know a pussrodded-bowtie lump when you see one?? :hammer:

I'd also debate the 8.2L claim. That's a smallblock 350 motor. Even if it is bored/stroked, it isn't going to hit close to 8.2L. Maybe they are adding the cubes from the positive displacement blower?

Sweet race bike, though! :)

8.2 liters = 500.394702 in^3, from Google, so chances are that's a smallblock 502. :eek:

Which I believe is physically impossible to get out of a smallblock 350 motor...which is what that is. A 427 is pushing it for that old design, and even for the LSX engines.

I believe a 443 is the largest for a Chevy small block, saw it on trucks or something, so agree no way on a 500.

According to the following link:

it's a 8.2 liter Mopar big block.

Had me fooled. The exhaust header pattern looks like a SB Chevy.

I've been seeing 502 smallblock motors for a while now, crate motors and everything. I think they have to do some sort of machining to clear the crank, but it can be done... :confused:

Nope, 502s are big blocks

:tu:

The 502 is just a bored/stroked 427/454 big block. You cannot get 502" from a GM SB 350 block.

I am obviously (and admittedly) ignorant on the Mopar engines.
