[QUOTE="SlowSVT, post: 13376768, member: 20202"] A few years ago Kellogg had advertised a 3.4XX" short stroke mod motor crank on their web site. I was interested in using this crank in my Boss block which would have reduced the displacement down to 289 cu in. Talking with the tech at Kellogg he stated they never actually made one. Turning the blank was not the problem, it was the drill angle for the oiling holes and they were not interested making even a small batch of them for a GB. As a long stroke creates problems a short stroke has the opposite effect. It pushes the piston further into the cylinder providing better stability for the piston, it gets you a longer rod for improved rod/stroke ratio, slows the piston down and less load on the rotating assembly. That engine would hold power and Revs better then even the stock stroke mill. Giving up the 16 cubes is the price to be paid for doing that but it was something I would have considered. You can beat the crap out of a short stroke motor like you favorite hound dog and he will still love you for it [/QUOTE]
