Our Stroker Build - Looking for comments good or bad!!

So... my update was lost in what will be know as the great crash of 2014... here are coles notes for future reference...

We bought a complete 1978 440 from a wreckers and disassembled it to steal the block.

The block was taken to Competition Automotive in Richmond Hill Ontario. It has been tanked and magna fluxed and everything checks out.

Competition told us that they have not had great luck in the past with 440 source kits and suggest we go with an eagle crank and rods with Wiseco pistons. Stroke will still be 4.25 with a 7.10 rod.

Competition will do all the machine work and assembly. They've done the work on our old 440 and they helped me with the 360 in my Dart.

We are hoping to get it back before Christmas but it's going to be a long wait until we can get back on the track in the spring.

If anyone is interested in a complete 440 that only needs a block and gasket kit let me know or look for my post in the mech parts for sale page

Thanks
