340stroker engine combo help

To be honest, I'm not that comforatble telling you it's ok. It might be depending on your block's fill level. The max side force should be about 1" down in the piston's travel from what I know. About 40° past TDC. That's where the leverage isnt really good on the crank and the cylinder pressure is becoming greatest. So if the fill is 1/2, it may be "good enough" with a tall piston, but not good enough for a shorter piston of a stroker engine. I would suggest you ask a few other builders.

Mike, yes, it was a chassis dyno. You know the whole story on that one. I skipped out from my office to go see it on the rollers.

ok will ask the guy who will do the machinework and i do understand that you dont feel comfortable saying its ok:)

there is about 1 7/8" from the top of the fill to the top of the block so i would gues that its about a ½fill just by looking at it..
thanks alot for your knowledge :)
