Reply to "408 Stroker Life Expectancy"

DeTom,
I'll have to look into that. It just seems that I remember hearing that the 400M wasn't much of a performance engine, and that there were not a lot of peformance parts for it, or something like that? If it has the 9.5 deck height, that would probably be a problem for me? Though I am considering running this engine with no air cleaner if I have to, in order to keep an air cleaner from blocking my view out the rear view mirror.

Thanks for the new idea,
Art

DOH!! Wait a minute Art, I just remembered. Gary in INdiana built up a 434 cubic inch stroker motor by starting with the 400M block. If I remember right he got some big numbers on a mild build. It would probably last 100K miles because it is all under-stressed. It uses regular Cleveland everything!! Ask him about it. He seemed to be real happy with it.
