I started out with 2 400 blocks which I found on Craigslist. Both were
standard bore and appeared fine... Until I had them sonic tested. Both had a
couple of thin cylinders. Instead of sleeving the old blocks and hoping
for the best, I decided to go all out and purchase a new Indymaxx block.
Hopefully it will be with me for a long time to come.
My stroker kits is from 440 Source. The pistons are for a 4.375 bore and the
compression will be 13.5:1 Rods are upgraded I-beams with ARP bolts. The kit is
supposed to be rated to 1000hp, well over the 650 I'm shooting for. Cylinder
heads are also from 440 Source. I picked up a set of their Stealth heads which I
am fitting with Crane valve springs, retainers and locks. The cam is a Crane
solid roller with .630 lift. Cam will be driven by a Milodon Gear Drive.
