Good pricing Bill! The “H”series bearings are hardened rod bearings and I would also recommend them for your Stroker application. The 4” crank puts a lot of stress on the rods and main caps so hardened rod bearings are good insurance. A set of full-groove mains for your crank w/high volume oil pump is also recommended.
The shop will have to clearance the rods to the block with a four inch stroke but the Poly requires only minor clearance and shop time should be no more than one hour.
What cam profile will you be running? A
[email protected]” duration HYD. is a very good profile for the Stroker, or the
[email protected]” Solid Cam for most applications – this will yield approx. 400-420HP and 440-450ft. lbs. of Torque at low RPM levels (3400 & 5300 respectively) and produce extremely high & flat average numbers.
Well, I'm dropping off my block to begin the 392 poly Stroker project on Wednesday. Found a local machine shop with a good reputation that's reasonable priced. Hot tank, magnaflux boring & honing will cost me ~$260, clearancing the block to my rotating assembly $80-120, Install cam bearings $60, assemble the short block $250. so all work to get the short block in shape will be ~$630...not too bad I guess.
He suggested getting "H" series bearings...what's the significance of these series bearings? He was talking about clearance for crank radius or something but there was alot of noise in the background.
