thanks Chris.
The first size available will probably be the 454, but we can build any combination requested.

It's going to depend on options, but they'll get over $20k easily. They will be complete crate engines.

What's the biggest you can go with this combination?

It's a 4.125" bore with .100" sleeves and .300" of alluminum behind that. It can accomodate a 4.250" stroke.

Now could you still take a little bit outta the sleeve to get something around a 460? and is the block able to be "clearanced"? Like could you go with a bigger stroke then just clearance the bottom of the cylinder a bit to accomodate the rod and maybe just fill like an inch of the block with block fill?

That question would best be answered by World products. We like to keep sleeves .100" min.

Carbed4thgen,
We tend to agree with Katech, we like to keep our sleeves at .100" thick, however, the General goes smaller (.07"). We don't recommend it though. We are investigating a 4.5" inch swing crank. If that would prove successful, we would generate 481 cubes. I realize that is probably not big enough still...

Ok if you guys need any help with trying to fit anything I would love to try this all out. If you'd like to know how far this combo can go once again I'd be there if anything was needed
