Save the monster crank for a 440 block and build a 470 with the 400.


My thoughts exactly. I have a 451 halfway there & if I could do it over I woulda offset ground it for 470 cubes and I have a 440 block next in line that'll get a 4.5" stroke 440 source kit




I have a 440 that's getting the 4.25 stroke it.

I want to keep the internal oil pickup in it.

As for the 400 and your plans for it, the pistons will be hockey pucks and the side loading on the cylinder walls will be extreme.
