427 truck block build questions
I just picked up a 427 chevy tall deck truck block cheap. It has the 4 bolt mains and it is currently getting cleaned/inspected at the machine shop. Previous owner stated it is bored .060.
I want to build a potent big block for the street on a budget. I want to spend the dollars on the bottom end with a nice stroker kit, but not sure on the rod size/length. Scat suggested I go with a longer rod if I went with a 4.25" stroke but the machine shop suggested I keep the rods stock length.
Has anyone had success with building a stroked 427 chevy/tall deck block?
Thanks!
You're welcome Mike, glad it worked out for you. Roger, it's taken a few years but my inventory of excess parts has shrunk a fair bit from 1 1/2 garage stalls to about an eight by eight space. ...
