first time building a 400 SBC
I have built a couple 350's, now I am wanting to join the 400 club now.
What are some do's and don'ts? It will be a drag motor in a tubbed 72 chevelle. I would like to get high 10's out of it on motor in the 1/4, I mostly run 1/8th mile though.
With the steam holes...should I plug them on the deck or just slap some heads and gaskets on it and forget about them?
I will be using a GM block...what should I look for in the blocks? Weak spots?
How strong are the stock cranks? I would like to spray 100-150hp of nitrous.
Thanks for all the input,
Travis
