    Favorite sbc??? Why that would be the 427. GM or Hardcore either would be just fine. Could put some oomph in the old gocart.

    I dont know what a 391 one is so someone please enlighten me.

    My favorite is the 265 I think because it the first and I just love those factory valve covers. My father has an all original unmolested one still running in the 55 Chevy in his garage.

    The 391

     



    I started building these when a customer need his crank turned.
    The 391 is built using a 3.75 stroke crank which is then "off-set ground" to 3.832 in stroke.
    The combo uses the std. 5.7 rod in length.
    Yes,this combo. will fit in a stock block but will require a small base circle cam.
