also you cant put a early crank in a 79 onwards block because it will hit the block,later 460 cranks are slightly smaller on the counterweight ,and later blocks from d9te have a little bit taller deck height and is the one to go for if building a stroker,also D6 truck conrods are the same strength as cobra jet rods and im lucky to have a set,and also have better bolts.

i found a set of caps for the other block ,getting them next month,at least thats something and got them cheap so a line bore is not out of the question anymore,and it will give me another 460 to build or 429 ,im thinking of doing a nice 429 just for something different,rods are the same and pistons are cheap as chips from usa as most go for the 460 build,just some ideas at this stage.

Thanks for that

That's to suit a 4.500 stroke crank

Either is good ,mounts n extractors are easy to find,460 van is mega

Yea the plan was 408 stoker for the van, but never been sure on a bb, like I have the spare 302 at home, just more of a price weigh up on things on parts as I build myself and the machine work gets done for me at cost or less

Big blocks are cheap horsepower but heavy. Strokers get it done with much less weight but the bits are expensive, only the block basically remains, everything else is turfed for new bits

I scored a crank spacer this morning you need this on a early internally balanced crank

This block is 060 over already and is quite usable I sanded 1 bore by hand and fitted a new piston just to make sure its not a rattler and seems to be ok there also virtually no lip so I'm in luck,amazing what are the chances of finding a 460 block with 2km of your house ? Well I fluked it again.
