408 stroker build
#11
Quote: Overall i personally think i got a good deal $1200, for a 408 stroker w/ 2.02 r/t heads, m1 intake, crower 1.7 rollers, ignition system, mopar air hat, injectors, flexplate, and mopar valve covers... maybe forgetting something. a similar build is upwards of $5k
Good deal!!!
Take it to the guy that built it and have him go through it; everything needs to be checked / cleaned from bearings to valve guides. Spend what you need to, now will be cheaper than later.

clearances etc should not be an issue if it was done correct from the start, as stated. I personally would dis assemble the whole thing, if you are going to hone it the rotating assy will obviously be out. but I think you should also pull the cam etc. at that point every thing can be measured (gamble if you like) but I dont go thru all that work without knowing exactly what I am dealling with. this also lends itself to a thorough cleaning, contaminants of rust-metal dust can kill a fresh motor. use lots of assy lube on all bearings and cam during re-assembly and torque progressively.
do all that and pay very close attention to details and you are going to be golden. Im so jealous.
