To answer your questions.....

First off, when I first picked all the components for this motor, I told them I wanted at least 540hp naturally aspirated and wanted the internals strong enough to handle at least a 300hp shot of Nitrous on top.

That's when they went to ROSS for the custom racing pistons. My CR was 11.8:1 w/ my AFR 220 heads. (I'll double check the CC when I get home and look at my paperwork)

The rods are Eagle 5.875 H-Beam rods

The crank is 4340 Forged Lunati stroker crank (3.875" stroke)

We also had the block "studded" with ARP block studs as I mentioned in my post. This is much more accurate for torque readings etc. and can apply more consistant clamping pressure.

The engine is at a engine builder shop in Northern CA. (B&B Performance) but I am 200 miles away in Reno, NV.

Hope that answers your questions. Let me know if you're serious and we can work something out.
