Re: small block 400
He gave you a 400 for free.......you lucky dog! 400 got a bad rap about overheating, they are no worse than any engine. Change to a longer rod when you rebuild and overbore to .030 and never go more than .040 on a street 400.......hmm does anyone make an off the shelf .020 over 400 piston? Check out this months Car Craft Mag, Jeff Smith just redid a 406 SBC that make 500 Lbs/ft with Vortec heads.
I actually have a brand new GM 400 block in my garage that I don't what to do with it.
