Roush DL588SREPC 588 CI Street Race Electronic Performance Crate Engine

Description

Propel pro-touring muscle cars with the Roush DL588SREPC Electronic Performance Crate Engine in turnkey trim. Displacing 588 cubic inches from a 385 series big block Ford foundation, this platform generates 760 horsepower at 6,200 RPM. Multi-port electronic fuel injection pairs with mirror-polished front accessory brackets and valve covers to provide race output with show vehicle distinction.

A premium iron four-bolt main Ford 460-based racing block houses 4.500-inch cylinder bores and a 4.625-inch stroke. Internal hardware pairs a 4340 forged steel crankshaft with forged 4340 H-beam rods and forged 4032 aluminum pistons. Featuring a 10.5:1 compression ratio and an eight-quart baffled road-race oil pan, dry weight equals 690 lbs on certified scales.

Key Features of Roush DL588SREPC

Discerning vehicle craftsmen buy Roush DL588SREPC crate engine packages to install high-displacement fuel-injected pushrod muscle into vintage frames. Polished component finishes combine striking engine bay aesthetics with enduring surface protection.

• Multi-port electronic fuel injection meters fuel delivery for instant cold starts
• 4.500-inch iron cylinder bores provide immense swept volume for massive power strokes
• 4.625-inch forged steel stroke crankshaft converts displacement into massive torque leverage
• Forged 4340 H-beam connecting rods endure brutal high-load acceleration pulls
• 10.5:1 compression pistons produce tremendous thermal energy on 93-octane pump fuel
• Polished cast aluminum valve covers protect dual valve springs and roller rockers
• Polished aluminum front-drive brackets secure cooling and charging equipment
• DL588SREPC standalone engine harness connects straight to digital instrument clusters

Dyno Verified Output Operating Parameters

Spanning an operational band from 2,400 to 6,500 RPM, this V8 outputs 760 brake horsepower at 6,200 RPM and 730 lb-ft torque at 4,600 RPM. The hydraulic roller camshaft features 248 degrees intake and 256 degrees exhaust duration at 0.050-inch lift, alongside 0.620-inch valve lift. Premium 93-octane fuel maintains stable combustion, pulling 12 in-Hg manifold vacuum with 50 to 70 PSI oil pressure.

Transmission Mating Frame Rail Spacing

The standard Ford 429-460 big block bellhousing pattern mates with heavy manual transmissions and Ford C6 automatics. The internal neutral balance rotating group matches zero-imbalance balance dampers and flywheels. Oil pan dimensions fit broad frame rail spacing on vintage pickups and custom pro-touring chassis.

Pre-Oiling Protocol Prohibited Applications

Circulate zinc-rich break-in oil through all engine oil galleys using an external drill tool prior to turning the starter. This unit is not engineered for marine vessel installations, turbocharger pressures over 9 PSI on standard ring gaps, or unmetered nitrous systems.

• Drain break-in fluid after the initial 50 miles of vehicle operation
• Change engine lubricant every 3,000 miles using high-zinc synthetic oil
• Inspect individual sensor connections and wiring integrity every 12 months

Factory Warranty Coverage Complete Manifest

A 24-Month or 24,000-Mile factory limited warranty protects this powertrain against component failures. Crate contents comprise the complete long block, multi-port fuel injection system, engine management controller, oil pan, valve covers, distributor, and certified dyno test documentation.
