Hello, first post on the forum.

Look here : [homepages.paradise.net.nz]

But there is an mistake about pistons source as chevy 302 has 4'' bore size. I think He uses Chevy 305 pistons with top machined to final comp height.

Cheer.

Hello Nicolas,

Just another thing apparently he used also 5.7'' chevy rods. But with it you have only an stroke/rod ratio of 1.628.

There are very nice 5.85'' rods aviaible from Real Steel in Uk. RS uses this rods in their 5.0 stroker kit (3.510'' stroke). It gives you an stroke/rod ratio of 1.671 with 3.5'' stroke and 1.666 with 3.510'' stroke.

Rod journals of P76 crank can be grind to have 3.510 stroke.

Do you know where to source P76 crank ?

Cheer.
Dimitri
