I completely agree, you are being nit-picky

Sorry, just having some fun. Please substitute 'modified production pieces' in place of the word 'stock'.

When i put the word stock in quotes, what you said is exactly what I was trying to infer, that the crank is a off the shelf factory piece modified for the application.
On the 10,000 rpm motor, the rods where never stock pieces, modified or other wise. Aluminum rods where used. Stock rods can be massaged for 7 but not 10!
Now for the 7000 rpm motor, just bolts, polish the beams, peen them, suitable pistons and careful assembly and machine work is all you need. Pretty much standard stuff when constructing any performance engine. Oiling mods are also pretty standard fair when building a performance Windsor or Cleveland. You don't even need the four bolt block.
Sorry for the confusion!
