Ok guys, a few questions so I can get stuff ordered for this block we have been discussing.
If I were to use this cast crank:...
What is the lightest stock stroke rod and piston combo?
I need a piston idea, so I can give it to the shop for him to deck it to where it needs to be. I want flat tops, unless dish would give a better flame front? Can I get 10.5-1 with any dish piston and TF heads?
Can/should I use 7.1 rods? Pros/cons in this application?
Are aluminum caps/girdle still recommended for a lightweight rotating assembly 440 with a 6000-6200 redline?
Car will have aluminum heads, wanted TF 270 originally, 240 would probably be better with the cast rpm range. (?)
I know some of this is dead horse material, but I'm trying to get an idea of what I need so I can get the shop the info they need while that water is still warm.
Thanks again; the support is appreciated big time.
