KB makes a forged piston that is within .015 of the compression height you would need. I am quite certain you could face mill .015 off the top of those pistons. Diamond will make 2 changes to a shelf stock piston for a minimal charge. ( semi-custom/stock). If you have some nice Crower rods, then your should put a good piston in it and get EXACTLY what you need with the Diamonds, unless the Indy deal works out.

The 470 is a great bucks down combination in both blocks that's real easy on parts and runs forever when carefully assembled...3.90 stroke is the same as a 455 Buick BTW great engine mike

I was looking at all these parts I have and the only thing holding me from building a 470 is pistons. I have everything to build a mild 470 utilizing ported Stage V heads and a RPM intake. I just don�t want to spend a lot. I would rather save the coin and use it towards the bigger motor.

While there are clearly 470s using the 6.385 rods, the shift appears to be toward the longer rod and shorter piston. Any reason for this? Not looking to hijack, just want to hear thoughts since we're discussing the 470s. Thanks.

Iam ordering the kit tomorow. The indy kit is on sale and pound for pound mike said is the best kit for stock style heads and he told me its just a great,reliable combo that makes great power and torque. He told to have the crank shotpeened and watch the taper on the jornals but minimal block cearance and it just works great! Thank you all for your help. This is gonna be fun! Anyone got a used rotating assembly for sale?!!! hey,iam cheep! I had to try! Thanksagain! I will keep you all posted. Its a 383,I swear!!!! "I aint here on buisness baby,Iam only here for fun"

Do you mean B vs an RB ? What headers do you presently have ? Most headers are a compromise so they will fit many chassis and both deck heights , some work better with one combo vs the other . the only company I know of that makes a deck height specific header is TTi , so if you don't have TTi's you should be all set. If you have an exhaust system on the car with a crossover pipe you will have to modify the headpipes as the headers will be closer together once installed .
