What some of us are getting at is because the deck is taller the cost to get the comp. up to just 9.5-1 for pump gas is goingPFC 1 wrote: ↑Sat Oct 10, 2020 12:04 am Well obviously I have come to right place for information, thank you all for your replies. How much money do we want to spend?, not sure but enough that it will run well. If the crank is good, it sounds like rods and pistons will be the most economical combo plus all the rest. We are not concerned with space because it will be going in a older truck. We are not looking for a super stroker motor, just a solid big block that will take us cruising into the sunset and have some fun building it as well.......that's the best part
to cost a bunch more then you considered.
They are about 7.8 -8.0 barely but if your content of just doing a stock build with the 4 ring pistons and a good cut off the deck and heads and some MLS head gaskets and a FT cam upgrade that will work as well for you.
But consider the cost of the core you are starting with...........................................................
