How much does it usually cost to cut a 440 crank to fit a 400 block? No offset grinding, just the mains & counter weights. a 451 seems to be the best thing I've read about so far. It seems to be a proven combo. I like the lighter weight of the rotating assembly v/s the 440.

thanks for everyone's replies. i just want to learn more (all i can) about the mighty mopar big block..

before i spent $$$ on cutting down a stock crank i'd look into a 3.90 stroker crank for 400 block. comes out to 470 cubes. parts are easy to come by and an absolute killer combo. my favorite big block combo. kinda like a hot 350 chevy on steriods.
