i been doing that fomula over and over again on my calulator . its good to have it in writing now,
thanks

i read that the differance in the 533 vrs the 557 is mid range tq, on the 557 right ? this was a 1998 book .

if my chassis is not messed up i might go big ! so the biggest stoke you can fit in a stock 460 block is what ? 4.500 ? and is .080 over bore the biggest bore also ? or is there more to be had?
at .080 is 4.440 you cant go 4.500 ? thats only .060 more or .030 per side on the cylinder.
and what year blocks to stay away from and whats the best or okay blocks
thanks

You need to sonic any block you want to take to .080, alot will go their with out issue, but its sometimes pretty random, no factory 2 bolt blocks are better than others. although D9TE stuff does have deeper skirts on the bores and DOVE-A blocks are easiest to convert to 4 bolt mains.

If you looking at building a big motor, most of the time its best to just bite the bullet now and get a A460 or Eliminator block, you'll be ahead in the long run.

You can also go in-between those bore sizes with a 4.470 bore.
