NOW your talking my language!!! 8)

Ok you make a good argument, but keep in mind my 540 made 700hp at the flywheel and about 680 ft.lbs. of torque. That would be more than enough to get an A-body really moving!

You are absolutely correct, but why would you want to? I would rather save some money and build a stock block (granted you are not planning on making more power than it can handle). Anyway, I was not trying to be rude, especially not on my first post....and thanks for the welcome!

Nah you can use a stock block. To get a 540" from a 440", you will need a 4.5" stroke crank and 4.375" bore. It can DEFINITELY be done to a stock block, as I have done it. The pan rails need to be notched for rod clearance and the camshaft can not have a higher lift than .590" or the lobes...
