Out with the 340 & in with the 410 stroker!

My header gaskets have shown up 'fel pro Q1413' thats what I use and have even reused before.
Waiting on the intake gaskets, going with felpro QMS90109 , they are a thin bi metal gasket that comes in handy when you heavily milled heads 'comfortably max'd out on the intake face of the head and want to remove as lil possible from the intake to make it fit'...last time I used mcorrmick intake gaskets...both r around .35 thick fwiw

**Found the best deal on felpro MS90109 intake gaskets from autozone 14.99 compared to summits 22.99**

Also waiting for the Herbert solid cam and Morel solid roller lifters I ordered 2 days ago.
See....my engle solid flat has porosity on the no.6 lobe, engle & I both agree it's a casting issue and that they will regrind me another for $60....but that may take an unknown amount of time & new lifter/break in....so I said to hell with it....... nah, really I'll just stick it in my 340 that I intend to yank the heads off & port some more...along with milling...but thats another thread;)

So the new cam should be just a lil more hp than what I had, I still only have about 10.1 compression ....so I couldn't get much bigger really..and the installed height vs more money has me in a pinch when it comes to springs, so......

now I will have .570 253*@.050 288*adv 108*...'solid roller'

With the last cam I had a high 7's dynamic at 165-170psi, the new cam should give around 175-180psi and a low 8.1 dynamic....and static of 10.11111

The roller setup with bronze gear is just about $700, or $625 without springs...which is another thing....this profile allows the use of a 1.437 spring installed at 1.70 or 1.75 @ either 195-165 psi seat and 425lbs or so open psi..

I still have to pick up the heads from brian 'he fixed the seat cut that the other shop fk'd up...twice'
I still need to mock up the intake, but if I remember right...I already did and figured it needed about .090-.100 off each side......., like I said about the heads being milled a lot...

In a nutshell.... Im getting there.
