Steve, that's my thinking too. Over the past 30+ years I've only used Nodular cranks, except the P. Dude prep ones.. Not sure of "regular" cranks limitation..The engine builder just texted me, my crank is std/std, it's a 73 455 crank, non-N. The engine should be in the low 500 hp range, and possibly a little more in torque. The cam is a bullet hydraulic roller with HLJ hydraulic roller lifters with pin oiling. Cam specs are 234/[email protected]. Lift. 580. 455(462)/forged rods/ forged pistons.
