Thanks all for the advise and suggestion , I guess I be on my way to my work soon and take out the grinder and cut halfway thru on both sides and use a wedge to open the gap up to get the ends to line up to each other, and carefully weld it.
I have a new drive shaft and axles from manchini and a brand new center section too, so I don’t want to ruin them with a bent housing.

Anyone use the mosier housing? It was not too expensive ether http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail...mp;autoview=sku
Are they stronger enough or do they need to be back braced too? I run a stroked 440 wedge (500) with a procharger. 1000+ hp
The Dana 60 would be the best I know but my economy does not allow it at the moment




1000 hp stock block 440??




ARP studs, half filled with hard block and Main stud girdle. Hope that’s enough to keep it together




Then I hope you do not plan on having any slicks or drag radials on the back!




Actually I have Hoosier Pro dot's . But I’ll take it easy this summer, I don’t use transbrake.

How much would a stock 440 block hold together with Hard Block and Main stud girdle kit, i have H beam rods and Eagle crank.

The majority of people would advise against trying to run a stock block in the 1000 hp neighborhood.

Whats the exact combo? Which procharger? Bore, Stroke, compression, cam and all the other important information.

Well personally, I wouldn't try to push that much power through a stock block. I would be looking at aftermarket blocks.

I'm not saying it won't run, but in my opinion it would be a ticking time bomb.
