bear351c 10,273 Posted September 9, 2018 Yeah, I reckon Clevo ring sets suit 350 Chev and Mopar, too.! Guess they're all 4.000" bore. Hastings are good gear, had no troubles with them, ever. 1 Valvebouncer reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gerg 10,871 Posted September 11, 2018 Going back a bit to cranks:1M: 221/260/2892M: 3023M: 351W/351M4M: 351C5M: 400"A" afterwards means high nodularity "-B" is a Brinnell hardness testSo a 4MA-B is the best clevo crank.After a certain year, most cranks were high nodularity so 302s from then on got 2MAs.
