I am fully aware that 4" and longer stroke cranks will rev, but I don't think that nullifies a 3.76" stroke crank. 427's worked, and this 433" setup will easily meet my goals. I'm with you on not NEEDING a solid cam. Thinking of it from that perspective makes sense to me.
CanadianK20, thank you for the pictures of your crossmember. That's very helpful. I'll try these POL tubular mounts. If I don't like where the engine sits, I'll probably just built my own.

And why I asked are you ok with having to pull the intake and keep an eye on the lifters, to keep checking the valve lash, and keep notes on what they are for every valve everytime to see if there is a trend .
Some don't want that much upkeep they want to drive/use it.
only you know what is best..
The guy with a solid roller since 86 that has not checked the lifters since is playing with fire.. They should've been rebuilt 20k miles ago..
Comp doesn't offer the rebuilding service because it's not needed.
