Quote: Let me stir the pot some more Other than external oiling, how about a 4.5" stroke in an RB block? Is it doable. Pros/Cons????
Dram, Is it really off topic? I thought we were discussing an easy, affordable 700 that anyone could duplicate? Not saying the 4.5 option won't be dismissed as overkill in a stock block...but it merits more than an emoticon I would think.
I really wouldn't consider anything less than titanuim retainers, at this level, I think the initial price is justified by the advantages.
