Hello all. Doing my first engine build and just looking for some insight for those more experienced than I.
I have a 1972 360 that is at the machine shop. It will be bored .30 over and get the normal treatment of dip, plugs, bearings, and zero decked. I have found what I think is a good stroker kit (eagle esp 20502; cast crank, i beam rods 3/8 arp studs, mahle forged -.16cc dish pistons, internal balanced assembly) that will achieve 10.6:1 compression ratio. Additionally the top end will have edelbrock performer rpm heads, rpm air gap intake, edelbrock rpm cam and lifter set (318 exhaust, 308 intake, .488 lift, 112 lobe sep), going with Felpro wire ring head gasket at .039 compressed and 4.180 bore. The primary use is street/strip.
Just looking for insight as to if this is accurate and if it's a good build choice for my intended application.
