Texas Speed is building a 408 for me right now. Im using eagle 4340 crank, scat rods, and Mahle pistons, Jason told me it would handle up to a 250 shot easy, but you would need to do a fuel system. Im just running a 100 shot for now. The Iron block is the best bet, and cheap insurance.

Kooks 1 7/8 on the headers all the way. I picked mine up at HPE and boy was it the best move I could have made. You won't be sorry. I should have new track numbers soon to back my strokers power. It's mild but WILD when it wants to be

Good luck

So I haven't found anything that looks apealing to me yet.........I have looked at all you guys have posted up and they are all around 5-6K for a rotating assembly. I found one place I thought, that was around 3500-4k. I might have to look harder. Another thing I was thinking is that now that new 5 bolt block is coming out, (which will completely up the game) maybe these strokers will come down a bit?
