My 273 build

And do you know why I lost othe messages in my mail box

You cannot use any different stroke crank from stock without custom pistons. I answered that in post #16.

Ok thanks I appreciate the help what about a 358 crank ?

Sorry I didn't answer your question. Egge 273 pistons won't work with a 358 crank either. Do you know the 360 cranks need to be turned down because the journals are larger diameter than a 273/318/340 crank.

Ok thanks I appreciate another option I figured out is using a eagle cast crank wich will have to be balanced but it's the stock stroke so it will work and not break the bank four hundred something

Yes thank you I know now and I wasn't able to read that it disappeared for some reason. I was able to find out that egle has a cast crank which is a little lighter than the steal forged stock crank but it has to be balanced for four hundred something

Then you should use the stock crank. Is there something wrong with what you have?

There are no VIN numbers stamped on a 67 engine. It can be date code correct, and that's it. It's expensive enough already to build a 273 and adding a stroker crank to the equation will only make it worse. I just built a 273 for my 65 Barracuda. Custom forged flat top pistons from Race Tech, for stock stroke 3.31 crank cost $700. Rings cost $200. Race Tech already had a CNC program for the pistons, so they were cheaper because they did. Pistons for a 3.58 or 4.00 crank will be more, and a 3.58 or 4.00 Scat crank with 273/318/340 mains will be probably $1200 plus shipping. Then you get either a 302 or 335 CI motor depending on which crank you choose. I fully support building your motor however you choose and look forward to watching the build thread if you make one, but knowing what I know from recently going down the 273 Rabbit hole...I personally would never build a stroker motor out of one when I could spend less money doing the same thing to a 340 or 360.

Yes already have pistons darn it I wish I would have seen this before I already got pistons from Egge pistons 30 over 10:5.1 just ordered a eagle cast crank for 408 dollars it's a 340 stock stroke 331. It will all have to be balanced which is fine.
