so the crank has been cut. stroked out to 74.5mm and the mains had to be taken 10 under.

does amyone know of any company that makes high performance main bearings?
I want the car to be bulletproof and handle high rpms. my end goal is 600+hp and 7700rpm. but that is further down the line.

 

You could grind the crank to accept ford 460 main bearings

XJ-SC Modifications

 

I think he actually grinded the block? idk. im thinking of going with the AE or the king bearings. and sealed power coated narrowed bearings for the rods

 

I think I will be catching up with him next weekend so I will ask what he did. If you can modify to use off the shelf parts it will most likely end up costing less in long run.

 

yes get back to me if you can! thank you

 

calvin after the build you should make a stickynote with all the useful build info !

 

I will add everything to my wrote up once I get assembling everything so everyone knows how to build this crazy motor
