nah not really we tried to give lil info about the engine build within public view when it was built...we kept it to pm's check the vid i posted.

First off, it is an early 70's 351 block. It is .040 over, with a 3.85" stroker scat crank, which makes it a 396. Probe donated the pistons, which are forged SRS units with 28 cc dish I believe, but have to check that one out. It came out to 8.7 to one compression for the turbo. It has both valve reliefs in the pistons for twisted wedge and inline valves. The rings are a hellfire style ring in 1.5 mm top and second, with a 3mm oil ring. Again, this is from memory and if I put anything up here wrong I will correct it on down in the thread. I used a set of H beam rods, 5.95" long with clevite bearings on both mains and rods.
On the block I had it align honed with the girdle on it, decked and then bored and torque plate honed to fit the pistons. I specd the piston to wall a little looser because we didn't know how hard we were going to lean on it.
I also had the assembly balanced to 28 oz. I won't go into to many of the specifics of the clearances I use.
I blueprinted the engine, and whoever ends up buying the car will get those.

If i remember right it's somewhere around 80-90mm. I know the car runs low low 9s and probably has high 8s in it with more tuning. It was a rush built car for a deadline so there's still wrinkles that could be ironed out.

This reminds me of that one episode where nate was racing and he was talking about like lengths or running an 1/8 mile and he just said "man lengths are gay" It was so classic
