just curious to why your going with the 3.79 vs the 4.00 stroke. seems like more cubes the better. what are the benefits of the shorter stroke?



A shorter stroke engine it is easier and quicker to go up in the RPM's. Typically with a shorter stroke engine you can turn more RPM than with the longer stroke due to the rotating weight and centrifical forces that are increased as your stroke gets longer.



My 4.125 stroke small block was 1749 grams and revs like a dirt bike.

Makes killer torque without the rpm of the shorter stroke.

With eddy heads making 630 horse and averaging over 500 ft-lbs through the pull is not a bad thing while keeping things alive with a peak around 6500
