Running a 400 big block? ?Then whats your combination?
I just posted in your "400 stock bottom end" thread...
I would put a 440 crank it it.
You're gonna have a 400 crank turned, right? Might as well have a 440 crank's mains tuned down to fit the block.
Run stock re-conned rods with good bolts.
Get a hyper piston (cheap) and go, man GO!! What is that 451 inches? Yee haw....!
Seems to be that it would cost NO MORE to do this than a OEM crank 400.
