Considering stroking the 440, with the trick flow 240 heads, mild to moderate hydraulic roller cam, 10-10.5 CR and a EFI set up. Will go through a 727 with a gear vendors behind it. Looking for solid torque monster that I can spin to 6500 ish. Car will mostly be a cruiser/grand touring type car, but I want it to have some bite. My frame of reference is my GT500, which is 850 whp on her street tune. I don't need or expect the 512 to perform like that, but I do want it to have some serious grunt when I get on it. Hoping for something in the 600's/600's range. Just curious if anyone else has gone down this path? I like the thought of an EFI/computer controlled ignition with a dual synch distributor. I looked through many pages of 512 stroker threads, but didn't see a comparable build. Thanks in advance.
