It will be a fun build and we have plenty of time so we do not have to rush and over spend to get done ASAP.
The reason for the 416 is because we wanted a better crank that will take the load of the ysi pulling on it, so why not go with a 4" stroke. The bigger cubes will make more low end power/ torque which helps keep a more street friendly converter.
My goal is 800- 850 rwhp at 6200 rpm for now. That should be very safe on the motor and put this car safely in the 9's on a bad pass. ( my dyno reads low)

Right now we are waiting on the pistons to be made. Should be about 2 weeks to get in.
