Quote: 440Jim, I did ask Ken about your block and he said he didn't have it from the foundry yet but he did say "Ya it's a low deck deal right" I told him yes that is the one.
Thanks, that will keep it on his attention. I actually talked to Ken last week. After ordering my 4.500" Diamond pistons, I reminded Ken not to stroker clearance my block. Since it is a 9.98" deck height, the piston manufacturer wants as much support at the bottom of the cylinder as possible for the piston skirts.
I ordered mine on Jan 17, 2014. So the estimated schedule is: March 21 casting arrives from the foundary April 11 machining complete Then ship across the country from CA to MD.
