Your right Barry_R. I'm not sure why i keep wasting my time chasing weird ideas. I now gotta try an find a 390 crank and rods. Its probably going to save me a lot of money going this route plus I learned that the 360 rods are somewhat weak. Should i use 360 pistons with the 390 crank and rods? I've heard it will bring the top of the pistons right up to the top of the deck giving me a good quench.
