451 c1 buildup ???

[fastback383]

I am looking to build a 451 for my Barracuda, I have the 400 block and the rods from the 400, also have a 440 6 pak crank. I am looking for some good write ups on the web about it.So far have not really had any luck. Can someone post some good links , if there is any , On doing this combo, I know it is very popular and there has to be something good out there. Thanks, Fastback 383.

Here is an awesome article I found a few years back.

BTW, 440 6pks had the same cranks any other forged 440. only the balancer was different because of the heavier rods.

Always wanted to build me a stroked 400, maybe one day soon if I decide to move up to the mainland permanently :wink:
