Rod length,pistons and compression height????
Well I have a 400 block bored .030 over (4.155) and I have a 3 inch forged steel crank thats is going in the 400 block to build a 325. What my question is what rod legnth and compression height pistons will work?
I know (1/2 stroke + rod length + desired piston to deck) - deck height= Piston compression height. But what other length rods/pistons do they sell? and who sells them?
I think .025 is the right piston to deck clearance right?
And is it better to have longer rods and shorter compression height pistons or the other way around?
I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
