Thanks pittsburghracer now i just have to figure out cylinder heads and a few other key pieces. Kevin
When I put my 572 together I had Dram (Performance only) get me a Callias crank. He tried to talk me into buying the Chevy rod size crank but I had a real nice set of mopar sized Crower rods I was planning on using so I didn't listen. I had Tom Hemphile cut my Wisco pistons so I could build the shortblock and use either my 440-1 Indy heads or my B1's. When I put the shortblock together the older style rod bolts hit the camshaft. I called Dram back and ordered a set of upgraded K1's, rebalanced the assembly again and all is well. I put the 440-1's on it and ran some 8.40's with a bad (new) Barry Grant fuel pump and wrecked the car. When it comes back out the B1's will be on it this time. Good-luck with your build and we like lots of info and pictures of your progress.
