340 or 408?

Have you ever sought counseling? I’m sure you’re an intelligent guy, you just think your way is the only way.

I do write checks for head porting and machine work, not for assembly. You apparently have the equipment to do it, congrats.

Nothing wrong with short stroke engines, I’ve built several. My 434 is 4.125” stroke, a tractor engine. LOL
Where did I say my way is the only way?

Did you read the first page of this thread? If you do, stop writing checks for car parts and **** and pay a tutor to teach you to read.

The OP loves his 340. That hurts your feelings. He loves his 4.56’s. You hate that because you can’t use that gear on the street.

Go back and read what I said to him in my first post.

I’m going to type this very slow so maybe you can understand.

I will never build anything for myself with a 4 inch crank for ME.

I do it for customers after I tell them they’d do better with less stroke, but rather than listen to an engine builder, they listen to the internet because it’s never wrong.

You need counseling dude. Your reading comprehension is horrible and your passive aggressive nature shows you aren’t comfortable in your own skin.
