[QUOTE]Originally posted by Mr Paint Job: [QB] 396 with stock 302 rods, talk about ghetto racing. 1.32 is about the worst rod:stroke ratio i've ever heard of. most after market 396 kits have 5.956-6.125" rods depending on piston and deck height. also why do you say 1 3/4" primaries are a cork? first it's almost impossible to fit a windsor in a 65 mustang (i hate the lack of room in my engine bay and it's a bigger 67), second i don't think you can fit 1 7/8" primarys on a stock flange because the bolts are too close so you need an adapter plate that offsets the screws. that also pushes the headers out another 1/4-1/2" and now those headers are never fitting in the car unless his shocktowers are gone. what other alternative does he have? i'm not flaming, i'm honestly asking for ideas because as of right now i'm stuck with 1 3/4 super comps with my blown 408. but back to the "cork" comment, mine'll still run 10s no problem with those "corks" bolted to the exhaust ports, i guarantee that.
