It may be too soon to start this build thread but here it goes.
Its gonna take me sometime to not only get the parts all together but make the money and have time to do the work. Besides I have lots of changes going on with the car this winter.
I am now the PROUD owner of the only 4.750" stroke Cadillac 4340 Biilet crankshaft outside of Courtney ..
He had 5 made ..He has 4.. I have the other ...
After many conversations and emails about a girdled block I finally made a deal to get one. At first I was only going to get the girdle and fit it to one of my blocks and cranks.. Overtime that progressed into a completely machined block with a girdle fit to it..
To much nitemare possibilities going thru the local machine shop chebby clowns..
He had his shop start on 2 blocks with girdles to
A. Have one on the shelve
B. Get a good idea on cost for labor..
Time is not important so its taking alot..
Hahaha
