Tweet

hey guys, a friend reccomended me here. been doing a little bit of reading the last couple days so i thought what the heck!

ok, 400 sbc, 2 bolt mains, machine work still in process, im just going through parts lists. this will be driven on the street, pump gas. 91 octaine is highest around here. vortec heads are going to go on for the time being untill enough money is saved up for afr 76cc, 210's. cam is still in the air. any suggestions? not worried on milage, just want power, with pump gas. will possibly see occasional nitrous just 125-150 shot. then after afrs are installed, then a turbo is in the plans.

trans 700r4, 410's , 2500 stall, in a 48 chevy pickup. 3750 lbs with full tank of gas.

heres what ive come up with.

Probe SRS 9.96:1 w/ 64cc, 8.92:1 w 76cc, INV Dome, SB Chevy 400 (4.155 bore) 3.750 Stroke, For 6.0" rods
OR..
400 w/ 6.0" Rods, -26.58cc Step Dish Keith Black Forged Pistons compression ratio's- 9.5, 64 cc 8.6 76cc

suggestions on rings?

Sb Chevy Eagle 4340 Steel Crankshaft - 400 Main, 3.750" Stroke, 6.0" Rod, 2pc Seal, Int Balance

what would the 3.850 crank get me? its the same price as this one

rods, Scat 4340 Forged Pro Stock Small Block Chevy 6.000" I-Beam Rods - 7/16" Cap Screw

they say 700 hp rating on these, and they are pretty cheap!
