Default Seems like a long time ago

As many of you know, I did pull the trigger on a 427 stroker upgrade. That was about 12K miles ago. I've been just as tough on this engine as I was on my previous non-stroked Windsor, only now she's a real "neck-snapper". I disagree with comments regarding the dangers of punching a stock block out to 427 cubes. You just have to select the right parts (which Bill Parham did). I've met a number of folks who are running 427 SBs on stock blocks.
