    R-block
    American Eagle 4340 crank
    American Eagle 4340 H-beams w/ L19 rod bolts, non press on
    diamond race pistons (Flat tops with 1 intake and 1 exhaust releife)
    .030 deck clearance
    70cc combustion chamber head
    .051 thick Cometic MLS head gasket

    i figured it all out with a compression ratio calculator and it said i should be about 8.56:1 static, which seems good to me, i was wondering if any of the gurus saw a problem with the setup. and does anyone know who makes american eagle???

    how much boost do you guys think can be run on this? :huh:

    The stroker kit is going to cost me 1500, and depending on what my friend's cost is for an iron eagle dart block, will decide weather or not i go dart or R-block. R-block is about 1500-1700 out of summit i think.

    The R-block comes with a fresh line hone etc and all the bores are finished, but both have stock sizing, i will need to have it bored 30 over for the pisons, and the block needs to be clearanced, i havn't priced it out yet, debating between 2 machine shops.

    it says it comes with a fresh cylinder hone, and a fresh line bore, all standard 302 sizes for the pistons/main bearings. its not clearanced for a 331 or a 347 stroker kit though.
