    First your lower end won't take it and second you would not have much of a chance to hold a head gasket on the engine.
    Then there is the heat issue of the 400.
    No i didnt say I for sure want to. The thought went through my mind, and I was considering. I was already pretty sure it wouldnt be a very wise decision. But I wanted input is all I wont be running a blower, I'd have to change to a forged crank, rods, and pistons.
