Re: 400 sbc

I'm back! Without a block but he's holding it for me everything looked great! Cylinders not pitted. Theres a SLIGHT ridge but .020 overbore will clean them up for sure. I believe the whole code was 395-509 . I may be wrong on a number. It was grimey but I cleaned up the parts I needed to look at. The main caps still had their bearimgs and they still looked good. Slight normal wear. It is in fact 2 bolt. I wish I had the money to put down on it!! The steam holes were all clear and looked good..no cracks. The oil pan ridge was clean and looked great. Just some machine work to clean up the bores and deck (which looked good) and shell be good. Ill also hot tank it and magnaflux it just in case. As for parts..I've considered a set of aluminum vortec heads he has for it. If money allows..a set of Dart heads will be going on it. Camshaft will be a Comp cams xtreme energy of some sort. Ill be getting just a cast crank..but if I can find a good forged ill go for it. Overall I'm happy..just gotta get the money!
