Re: Closed Deck
It looks like you made god use of the extra space around the cylinders...i know nothing about building an engine...but is the 441 using separate cylinder liners now or is it all one piece, I can tell it is a different color and that some of the original block was bored out. I guess it is also a stroker too, so will it turn similar peak RPM to a stock engine...more? Less? 415's seem to be somewhat common, but this is the only 441 I have heard of so far, maybe others are out there. I think I read about a 427 LT5 as well.

I swear...If they have that "all Corvette" run at US41 next fall, it would be fun to see the Zs pin some ears back. (Did a pretty good job of it last year but there was only 3 of us there!) Is it spring yet??? P. |

Re: Closed Deck
Al,
I'm impressed! That is drop dead gorgous... I find it interesting that like in the stock engine, siamising all the cylinders isn't causing heat related failures of the rings and cylinder walls. Of course there is no real higher mile track record of these up sized engines. Still, considering this type of work has been for a while now, it appears not to be a problem. H
