With the popular and proven ZZ502 as its starting point, Chevrolet

Performance engineers took its capability to the next level to create the

more powerful SP502/605 Deluxe, which is rated at a strong 605 hp and 580

lb.-ft. of torque. It’s the sort of power for your vintage muscle car, hot rod or

classic truck that comes only from the incomparable Big-Block family.

New, higher-compression pistons, a new hydraulic-roller camshaft, CNCported oval-port heads and more drive the SP502/605’s greater output

— and this all-new Big-Block crate engine is distinguished with all-new

cast aluminum valve covers based on the striking, contemporary design

introduced on the ZZ632. It is offered in a Deluxe kit that includes an 850-

cfm carburetor and aluminum intake manifold, HEI distributor, plug wires,

water pump and balancer. It also includes a new-design seven-quart oil pan.
