Looking to make a larger motor (4) planning on a 2665, as I don;t really want to go over 103mm to make cooling easier.
The 80 crank is available for stock rods not the Chevy rods. It is my understanding that the Chevy option offers a significant upgrade to the strength. I'm tempted to do the stock. My question is : should I wait an indeterminate time for the crank with the Chevy rod option? What am I really loosing here? or is this just a must for the larger motors? My 1st engine build. |

Well, I know for sure this is a long term project. It's not something I'm gonna get rich off of, nor do I really want it to be a cash cow. I'm interested to see what I can do here and play with some "improvements" I can make, then test them.
