stock 440 steel crank ,stock ly rods ,liter pistons could handle 600hp no problem not even working the block.i think if i built a small block that level it would be aftermarket stroker crank possibly steel crank scat rods. that is the price difference.but my 440 build i used scat rods i got off ebay brand new 180.00 dollars.my machinist really had to cut on the crank



this guy gets it. And you don't have to spin it to 7k to make the power.
