My buddy blew up his 460 in his street/mud truck last weekend.

460
10.5 to 1
DOVE heads with some minor port work
Comp Cams 294S
Stealth Intake
850 Holley


His previous build was good enough to put him consistently in the top 5, but he wants more for next season. He's sick of the brand X guys always winning. His last engine was serving double duty as a street/mud race, and his competition is race only trucks. He's decided to take the truck off the street and make it mud race only for next season.


The only engine limitation in his class is that it has to be naturally aspirated. The pits are usually 200 feet long. I know he's been running a 4 speed, but he's going to swap over to an automatic for next season too. He is planning on a BBF stroker, but the rest is kind of up in the air. This will be going in a 78 F250.


Anybody care to offer up some suggestions for a race only 385 series stroker? From the sounds of things he wants to get pretty serious with this build.

Thanks
