I bored my 390 .030 and bought the stroker kit from Scat. The crank is a 4.125" and I put in Ross pistons etc... I have dual quad Holley 600's and a pretty mean Comp Cam. The only difference I noticed, besides the tremendous increase in torque and horsepower, is that the engine doesn't care for low rpms very much. But when you get on it.......look out. My total cubic inch is 431.

This build wasn't the cheapest way to go, but I firmly believe it will give you the power and look you are looking for in a period correct engine without having to "break the bank."

Good luck,

Todd
