Well the endless task of figuring out my 401 build goes on. My question is will I be able to use stock rods on my build or should I be looking toward some H-beam rods, and while I am asking questions I would like to get some opinions on what heads I should run? Do you think that I could go higher in comp. ratio since my boost will not be over 8 lbs and thats on a good day. The more I look in to the comp. ratio the more I think that I could go higher like in the 9's.
I am currently looking to run around 8 to 8.5.1 comp. bull tear forged pistons with all the ARP goods on the engine, and I will have a Paxton SN-93 supercharger with 6-8 lb of boost, and a torker intake with a (guessing) 850 blow through holly carb. I have yet to pick a cam yet. I am also planing on running water/methanol injection to help out octane and heat.
Any feed back would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
Collin
