Can I ask why you are so stuck on cubic inch? A 572 built right will make all the HP a stock body small tire car can use. One thing no one talks about with these large cube engines is maintenance. First you need to find a head with a large enough CSA and volume. Then there is valve lift in the 1.00 to 1.30 range. The majority of the 700+ cube motors have Titanium con rods that have cycle life of an aluminum rod. They are not Bracket or street motors. Put a ProCharger on one of your engines and be done. X3000!

Confusion of terms: "Aftermarket block" means any non-MoPar. When the bore pitch is extended, these parts cannot be MoPar: block, crank, cam, heads, manifold, pan

When the bore pitch is extended, these parts cannot be MoPar: block, crank, cam, heads, manifold, pan Mopar Performance Hemi Pro Stock Block - P5153651AB - 2006 Hemi Pro Stock Block legal for NHRA Pro Stock racing and features 4.900-inch bore center Mopar Performance Aluminum Cylinder Head - P5153447AB – HEMI ProStock Head for the 4.9 block World HEMI block – has a Mopar part number on it Callies Mega Block has a Mopar part number on it KB block used to come with a Mopar part number on it – not sure it still does and the block was available through the parts department at any dealership for years Then there were all those purple shaft Cams, Pistons, Rods all available through the Direct connection program - which later was Mopar performance So my point - these are actually Mopar parts – but yes they are all now made for the most part by the aftermarket manufactures – just like most of the Ford and Chevy parts for racing these days Then there is the whole crate motor program that Mopar has for the Gen3 engines - and how about the whole DragPak FSS car you can order through the parts department and go racing !!!!

When the bore pitch is extended, these parts cannot be MoPar: block, crank, cam, heads, manifold, pan Uhhh, not quite. 4.840 bore space block, let's see what fits: Factory crank? Sure, if you decide to Factory BB cam? Again, if for some bizarre reason you want to Heads? You got me there Manifold? It has to match the head, but no different from putting a W2 top end on a SB Factory pan? Again, if you must Another attempt to prove your mechanical genius status has backfired!

The same people have, again, displayed their lack of comprehension. By "MoPar", of course I was referring to OEM parts made for production cars. Duh.
