If you are going to build a Chevy Big Block, you should go to a Big Block specialist.

Darrell Wikle is the one that you want to go with. He will give the best and fastest LEGAL motor. Every user of his engines will tell you that you can qualify in the top 16 in any field with his motors. I know he has built a killer low compression 454 that can get into trouble with the AHFS.

He is the most honest engine builder. All you need to do is ask some of the fastest Chevys in the country.

If you do decide to use him, you better get your wheelie bars on.

His phone number is 316 942-9500. He is located in Wichita, KS.
