    Need help on Tall Deck 427

     



    Hello,
    Has anyone or does anyone know if this combo will work?
    Tall deck 427
    Deck 10.20
    bore 4.310
    Stroke 4.250
    Rod 6.800
    Pistons compression height 1.270 -3cc 8.7:1
    118cc Heads
    Math says it will work but will the rods clear OK? Thanks for any help or commits. I have this stuff taking up space so I thought I might try and build a 496.

    the block may need some work for the rods to swing thru some of the older block s are not cut out for much more then the 3.760 crank . some of the last IV blocks GM made before the V blocks had the casting open up like a 454 crank case and a 4 1/2 crank will just about drop in with not much work with H beam rods will help or any rod with short cap screws bolts
