Cost to make a 2bolt block a 4bolt splayed I have another LT1 block I just got all apart to the bare block. Going to be building a 383. Whats a average machine cost to drill the block and make it a 4bolt splayed? I want to know when I look around for prices.
And I have heard something about rod clearance issues? I have 6.0" ohio crankshaft forged I-Beam rods. Should it clear?

Little confused about your 6.0 crankshaft comment...the block will need to be clearanced for sure. The rod bolts are going to hit and each cylinder will need to be notched. FYI 383 cranks are a 3.75in stroke.

Well the kit I got from OC is a complete 383 forged rotating assembly:
* SRP forged flat-top pistons
* Forged I-beam 6" rods
* 5140 3.75 forged steel crank
* Race bearings and rings
* Internally balanced
$1295
I wouldn't think there would be a clearance problem..? Maybe ill find out when i put it together, prolly call those guys up and see what they say
