Looks like to be in C you'd be going small block or destroked big block or 361, 340/360 probably be good choices, If going B I'd drop a 440 crank in a 383 making 432-438 could even go 0.070" to 440 bore.

So these are the class engine sizes you can run ? What class the car running under ? Is it BVGCC ? The first letters of a car’s classification usually reflect the engine’s displacement but sometimes are even more specific. The most common engines found at Bonneville are pushrod V-8s for the...

I feel you got to know what other guys are doing in that class to try to beat a 28 year old record. Even if the goal is more about experience then ultimately beating the record it still helps to know what you are competing against to help make decisions. Especially how much hp is required.

How much power does the previous record holder make ?

I pretty sure one of the engine shops on here said he stroked a B crank to 3.54 so + 0.17, I imagine you probably could go - 0.17 3.21.

Especially since bottom power ain't much of a concern.

I guess a good thing about pulling plugs easier to move up a class.

Probably a port size for engine size thing, 383 has same bore as 426 and bigger than a 413.

I asked him a question that's it, you guy's are the ones making arguments I'm just replying to your ****. When people go on about dumping torsion bars for coilovers you don't defend stock setup, like F you don't. The OP asked for sbp disc brake solution only RRR offered a real solution for...

No ones forcing anyone to participant in any of my threads. I asked F%&king question to the OP and you all got to crawl up my *** about it, the OP could of answered or ignored and we all could move on with our day. If you guy's want to stop responding stop commenting, or keep commenting and...

I get what your saying, Not try to talk the OP out of doing it, if the dude got the cash to dump on the brakes and don't care fair enough never said don't do it, just unless what you got is being obviously inadequate then you probably don't NEED to do it. Why does that bother YOU/OTHERS so much...

Pretty sure it's not, they wanted 13:1 but got 12.5:1 out of it.

Couldn't find a 500+ hp 340 build but here's a little more than you wanted 592 hp @ 7,100/7,200 rpm 460 tq @ 6,000 rpm 400 tq @ 4,000 rpm, 12.5 cr W2 tunnel 263°/268° @ 0.050" solid cam'd 345. You go a little on everything you get a little less hp...

When people comment on my posts I generally reply, no comments no replies :)

I think people have ground the other way to 3.55" so that be 3.21" might be possible.

I can't ask the OP why ? That would of been the end of the conversation until all the other busy bodies got into it.

Why ? The OP could easily spend over a grand upgrading the brakes if that's what he really wants to do that's fine, but sometimes people get unnecessary mods in their heads that they may not of needed to do, I was just checking before he spends money, I have no vested interest either way...

Can a stock crank be turned down to 3.1" ? If not a 383 would need like a 3.22", bigger bore is better but your probably not building a 800-1000+ NA + boost motor, a 4" bore goes pretty far power wise so even a 4.185" probably be good enough but yes 4.28" - 4.40" is even better just wouldn't...

360 vs 361 or destroked 383/400. B you got bore size, 5 bolt heads, probably more head options, steel crank even though 360's crank is proven tough but this ain't a 10-15 second drag race, they seem to handle more power. 360 cheaper pistons probably, pin height ?

Well that seems to be the pin height, it maybe compromised but people been building stock stroke/rod B engines for years, I imagine he could find some chevy or custom piston and rod solution if he wanted. Just saying no need for custom stroker a 361 fits the displacement bill it's an option he...

? I'm taking 361 B engine stock stroke, if he went custom piston sure he could add longer rods if he wished, what rpms is the OP going for ? Imagine it ain't crazy high since it's a budget build.

Exactly what I was thinking cheap, got a decent bore to stroke ratio should be able to spin it fairly high if needed to, lots of high flowing head options, even port out stocker can get you pretty far, probable custom pistons the only main negative. 371.95 cid 4.185 x 3.38

I'm not stopping the dude from putting on disc brakes if he wants be it two or four wheel disc. I could be wrong but from the pic's of the looks fair stock and gonna just be putting around town and people sometimes think/told you have to modernize every part of these cars, I'm just saying you...
