How does a 360 408 stroker work?

Yeah I went with the pre balanced kit. The machine shop I went to only deals with Scat and that's what he recommended. Basically he told me they could balance it cheaper than it would cost for him to do it with the cost of Mallory. That's how they order all their kits. They check over them but he's never came across an imbalance. I hope it runs like I think it will.

I don't know about other rod combos, but my Scat kit didn't require any clearancing. I'm waiting on a new oil pump to come, and have not looked into trying to get my windage tray to fit over the 4" stroke. I won't try to hard getting it to fit.
