What is your 451 stroker combo?

The old torker was surprisingly a very good intake. The was some testing with various intakes and it performed very well across the rpm range. Sounds like some tuning issues [carb]. Shifting practice and you easily have amid 12 second car. I would still like to know what crank and rods you are going to use in your 451 build.

I agree. More practice. I also think a synchro or something wore out. It was regularly a third gear miss. The gear felt like it went in but was spongy feeling and nothing there. If that makes any sense. I never got to play with the timing or carb to see what the sweet spot was. It was ran exactly how I ran it down the highway.

I am not sure what the builder has in mind for a rotating kit. All I am supplying is the block and other parts needed for assembly. Sorry I don't have the knowledge for all of that. I have been doing a ton of research lately but have not done enough hands on to trust myself to build it. All he has mentioned so far is he likes to use Mahl or Ross pistons but will use Diamond. Prefers small mechanical cam but will run a Hydraulic if I want. I know I will get full details eventually but mainly telling him my goals and trusting his skill set and experience on the build.

Just thought Id toss a post up to see what types of builds are out there and to see what I am getting into.
