This awesome Chevrolet 356 V8 Street Engine was dyno tested with 501 horsepower and 474 lb-ft of torque. The dyno sheet and dyno video from March 10th, 2026 are included. This engine was recently rebuilt by expert Nat Chiavettone of Nat's Engine located in Swansea, Massachusetts. Nat is an ageless, unassuming perfectionist who is also down-to-earth, modest and unpretentious. Nat has built racing engines for almost every kind of racer in New England which includes: Modifieds, Late Models and Sportsman Trucks that compete on the local level. He also provided power to teams competing on the NASCAR Modified Tour, Busch North Series and the old Pro Truck series not to mention the countless drag racers, road racers and street-legal hot rods.
