According to the machine shop, the crankshaft 3.85” probably can be saved just by polishing it… 😅… .. have H-beam connecting rods, forged pistons 4.03”, Sending off the flywheel to get resurfaced and drilled for McLeod clutch…, cleaned the big aluminum oil pan today and have a new boss for the drain plug to be welded in (can’t stand NPT threads in aluminum!) Also got the 3/4” Nippel for the left valve cover (for the breather) and an aluminum oil filler neck ( and cap) to be welded in ..

Things I’m looking at now is MSD ignition..?! Carburetor 850..?.. I’m loosing the timing gears that were in the engine and go back to chain

hydraulic roller lifters… Camshaft… the Roller rocker arms from Harland should fit… have to check if they are 1.73… (that’s what the trick flow heads require)

well just a lot of reading and And picking other people’s brains 🧠. … not much out there on 393 Cleveland’s..
