Perfect! Can't wait to see your "budget" prices for us guys that don't do a lot of hard core racing.

What would be the ideal Bore/Stroke combo to make a 454 ci for N/A applications with a "once in a while" hit of N20?

4.250" bore / 4.000" stroke. Worked pretty good for the mark 4 big blocks. Only problem is finding big enough heads for all those cubes.

If you're going to put this is a natural aspirated, Sunday drive to church Caddilac, 4.250" bore will be fine! Otherwise, since it still has the standard bore spacing, I wouldn't go that big! Just a note that we'll delve into more once we have one sonic tested!

I can afford the block, I just can't afford to build it... ..= Coffee table for a year..

Well, maybe after next deployment. .. Block and piece the rest together... I'd just need to find a machine shot to punch it out to 550...
