470 Stroker - Anyone built one?

Thanks captain, sounds like a nice set up! Question for you about the carb: I've been told that I should be running no bigger than an 800cfm carb. I noticed that yours is sizably bigger...... Have you had any issues with the 1000?

I'm a bit hesitant in going the solid cam route..... I know that they are better power wise, but I think in my case, with the car having a street focus, I'm better off with a hyd roller. Open to suggestion though!

Bob, a simple answer to your question........ Because that's what I want to build! Looked at the 500 and 512, but just like the idea of the 470. Sounds like you don't like these motors........ Have you built one in the past? 470's are quite rare here in Oz, and I've heard of these engines running decent horsepower and torque figures both here and in the U.S, so I'm pretty happy to build one.
