@AHY I bought the crank from a guy here local thats into BB Dakota swaps, for dirt cheap, got a set of pistons with the deal( still for sale std bore if I remember right)

I have been talking with AllMotorDuster about getting his 2800 stall TCI converter, shes running a 2.94 sure grip rear, eventually getting a 4.10 ford 8.8, I figured a 2800 stall would be a good step in waking her up. I want to keep the compression between 8.0-8.5 to 1. especially when the hair dryers get bolted on.

Anyone know if these are any good dampers ? ebay damper
Talked to the seller they are made by a company called C.A.T Performance, are they any good ?

Now since I am using stock 400 pistons and rods, but a 383 forged crank, will i still need to get everything balanced, or get the crank polished, double/triple check the rod and main diameters and put it together as normal ?
