I haven't used that kit but I did use a 4.150 stroke Eagle forged crank in a 440 and had to grind the block to clear the counterweights. Eagle can't seem to figure out the counterweights need to fit in the block. I'm not their biggest fan though so maybe I'm just being hard on them.

Good parts for a good price, I'd still prefer the 4.25 stroke if you can get it.

I would not pay for the balance job , unless it was adding another 300 or so to the cost , you buy a 150 balance job you GET a 150 balance job ... which entails LOOKING at the weights written on the box

Thanks,guys!! Kevin...You are 400# less than me!! No heads up! John...You are so right on the balancing act!! I will call tech at Mancini when I have the time...Curious about compression ratio with my 80cc heads.. I have a lot of irons in the fire at this time with dad passing on and a boatload of OT at work..I am scheduled for 56 hours this week and 66 hours next week! Ted

Bobby...I think I would be happy with this kit...No desire to be super fast!! I talked with a tech at Diamond racing,his name was Nick. Very helpful,he said they sell a lot of Mopar pistons. He said the compression would be 11.3-1. I can live with that.

That is a good deal for these parts. I'm actually thinking about it too.

Must be the name of who sells the kit makes them better than some of the other low buck stroker kits out there. There all the same, diamond, ross, or keith black pistons , unnamed h-beamed rods and crank . I must say that is a good deal. How much for a balance job?


it's ok to butt heads, just don't do it with a butthead

They sell the same kit but internal balanced for an extra 300 bucks. I think most people will pay their local machine shop to do it.

No , it's alot more than just who is selling it , and if you think they are all the same then you should just buy the cheapest ...
