I have a reply from Eagle on 400 sbc strokes
I cut & pasted their email reply.
Bill, The longest stroke we recommend in a 400 is a 4.000" stroke. At +.030" overbore, this will be a 434 CID. Using this stroke requires extensive clearancing and at least a half-fill of HardBlok due to the fact that when clearancing, you will get into the water jackets. The next step down is a 3.875" stroke (420 CID with +.030" bore). It still requires quit a bit of clearancing but you usually do not get into the water jackets. You can find kit information on our website www.eaglerod.com or by calling us at 662-796-7373. Thanks for your interest. Bill back, you can see this is not a street motor it seems 406" is the largest safe driveable 400 sbc. |
