588 CI BBC w/ a 8.3 Whipple Engine Build Specs

We completed this engine build 3 years ago and have had a few questions about its specifications. This article is to feature the complete build list and results!
The idea behind our choices were a high HP/TQ engine, with reliability in mind. This is our family boat engine and it is not a race boat.
Dyno results: 1075 HP / 1078 TQ
Boost: 10 lbs
Fuel: 91 octane

Once we got the engine on the dyno, we discovered we did not need the auxiliary Aeromotive fuel pump. This later just complicated the fuel system plumbing, but it does work. If I were to to do it again, I would only do the large mechanical fuel pump.
