PANAVIA If you go with a stroker, and I think you should. Add a main cap girdle to the bottom end. You will cruise this car but also betting you will take it up to 6,000 rpms a couple of times.
Everybody does.
If you are going to run a MSD system, add a 6,000 rpm chip to protect the motor. My other idea for you is also to add an accusump tank to the car as a pre oiler for the motor before startups. 80% of engine wear is done at this time. they are easy to install, you can use a cable or go electric and have saved many engines from major damage when racing. The girdle is to give more support for the bottom end and the help better stablize the caps from moving. Over build the motor with good parts and you will get years of driving without failures. Match the parts will also give you the most power and best drivibilitity of the car. Everybody is trying to save a dollar right now but going cheap on motor, tranny, brakes, and wheels and tires is not the place to go. It's better to wait and get the better things than to be in a hurry and have to do things over a couple of times. Just my 2 cents. Happy Holidays. Good luck with the build. Add the aluminium upper motor to your motor. Intake manifold and Heads. It will save 100 lbs over a case iron setup. It also works better with controlling
oil and coolant leaks. It's about expansion rates of to different metals. Rick Lake
