426 stroker dropped in scamp

I figure...... rather the get my feathers all ruffled up over a few posts...... I’ll just wait and see how it unfolds and where it goes.

Frankly, I have no problem with the OP not wanting to share every detail of his combo.


So do I. Not every detail is asked for, just a little something something to at least lead me to believe he’s not bullshitting me.

And I think we can both agree 650 HP on a stock block is a pipe dream, unless you are a 3 run wonder.

650 HP at 8000 plus on a stock block is comical at best. That just will NOT happen.

You’d need huge bearing clearances because the block will flex like it’s made of cheese, you’d be lucky to keep head gaskets in it because the decks are so thin, and at best, ring seal would be barely acceptable.

Those production blocks are just too damn flimsy to take that kind of abuse.

Of course, all of us who have done this kind of thing are stupid and unlearned because we broke stock junk.
