Help me build my SB Stroker

It's all about the "suck factor". The longer the stroke, the harder the suck at any rpm. 4" is 11% more stroke than a 440 has. That is why everything in the intake port should be bigger. The port runs from the back of the intake valve to the bottom of the carburetor bore. So strokers can run bigger cams and bigger ports and bigger intakes and bigger carbs. In fact, they run much better with them. By running a smaller port or carb, you actually cause problems in idle and fuel metering that can be hard to tweak out. That and the faster piston speeds mean a small port will go turbulent and stall at lower rpms. When a 4" arm is out of breath early, the power peak drops like a rock. My mild 4" engines get 770wet flowed carbs, and a cam under 240°@.050 will not make any appreciable power over 5K in most packages, and will be low even on torque below that.
Oh and I just heard this morning. That 3700lbs E body I mentionned went 12.84 at 109+ last night on drag radials.. Still can't hook for 25' of first gear... 2.01 60's..lol.
