I have not gotten the pins pressed out yet. There is no copper visible in any of the big end saddles. But the rods were only machined on the side that rides against the other rod. I’m beginning to think that these particular rods were clad in order make up side clearance.

I’m not being a smartass or looking to argue. Just want to do what’s best. I’m all ears. Building a 383 about 500Hp, A body, stick shift. Thanks

I’m all ears

I remember a few discussions on here about them. I think @66Dvert was the man with the answers. I wonder what circumstances led to putting all 8 into an overbored block?

Never seen all 8 before. And they came out of a 383 that was factory .020 overbore.

I don’t see a lockdown linkage. Stickshift or manual VB?

Thank you, those are many of the thoughts that I have been having and I will be following closely. I appreciate you gentlemen letting us follow along. Nice work!

I’m well aware of that Rusty, thank you.

I’m not questioning your build in the least. I’ve just been advised not to push the compression envelope in a towing motor. So I have second guessed my build, also taking into account that the KB’s aren’t the toughest piston out there.

I’m doing it now with a 408. Would you recommend it for a truck motor? Or should I not make it so tight with those pistons? Don’t want to hijack, I can pm you if you prefer. Thanks

Are you saying that quech does not exist?

?what?

Did you check every hole? What was the variance?

Hughes used to sell one, but it could use a stiffener welded down the center.

:D I agree. That cam might be a little soft down low. Just form the record Moper's opinion is worth more than my opinion, on the matter. IMO:D

Is there any oil or oil smell on the plugs this time?

Turbulence I guess. Reversion starts as a combination of overlap and exhaust charge not getting fully expelled, so that when IVO the cylinder pressure is still more than atmospheric and reverts back into the intake. Now, a turbulent intake does not help and CAN compound the problem. Exhaust port...

If you think interference and reversion are the same thing, you're fucked up like a square BB.:)

Port mismatch cannot cause reversion.

Seen it and believe it. He's at quaker city religiously. In. His full interior 71 charger,ss springs, snubber, 906 heads,.509 cam, 850cfm, headers, 4.56. 11.50's and deadly consistent!

That's great. I wonder if that new Milo Don cover has some kid of anti drain back. If not some one should make one.

Brian6pac, if I could make a suggestion from experience please? You're gonna want to get a longer external oil hose. And use 45 degree fitting off the pump. Loop it upwards then back down to your pan 90 turned almost straight in the air. If you using a motor plate it looks like it will fit...

Yes, stock sized, but raised port. To the best of my knowledge

My 2002 MP catalog has an intake listed, low deck-stage vi-4500 flg- P4529725. this one i have has a 4150 flg but looks like if you milled of an inch it would be 4500. I wonder if they were all the same intake, but the 4500 's are shorter?

I have a top end off of a stage 6 crate motor RB megablock. The heads are standard port size. The intake is max wedge size and is wider than any RB as it is intended to fit RB WITH Raised port heads. So it will not fit anything except RB raised port. Yes the port sizes were mis-matched on the...

Subscribed, I'm curious to see what kind of oil pressure you'll have. Do you have a high volume pump?
