My God this thread is old. I posted to it in 2015. I really stalled out on my build. Ended up buying a 4" stroker crank from ohio crankshaft about a month ago though. Bought some new eagle H beam rods, and a clean used set of KB forged stroker pistons off fabo these are a street engine stroker piston. With a .040" headgasket should put me right at 9.8-1 cant remember the PN of em. This will let me run the 91 octane thats in my area.
So yeah dealing with what i deal with on a daily basis, i am pretty much outta G.A.S. (Give A ****)
