Rounded off numbers for journal sizes are
2.200” on the rods (but are usually 0.001 under) - so about 2.199
2.750” in the mains (but are usually 0.001 to 0.002 under) - so about 2.748 to 2.749

What year is the 402 block and what is stamped on the front pad of the block?

A little late but we are using the factory type 30 over 11.0 to 1 pistons Bryon.

I will check and try to respond back via pm.

No 68 Muncies got an application code stamp, period. There are suspicions that those are inspection stamps (like the small squared off c) but nothing has been proven for sure.

You both need to tone it down. Or this will be locked down. May need to do some cleanup.

No VIN on the hood. But there might be a stamping to indicate the week on the driver’s side, rear corner, outside edge.

What rear axle does it have? Disc brakes? Any signs of it being a big block car?

Trim tag might be gone for a reason.

Exactly how it works?  I don't know Gary. But I do know that when I checked out the price was reduced by 15%.  I would guess that eBay pays the difference to the seller.

I remember someone saying the 074 heads made about 8.5 comp with closed chamber heads. Someone said 10.0 with closed 11.0 pistons. Which is closer? We are doing this with a 30 over L72 short block. The car has the makings of a nice street brawler but no more to me.

Exactly which pistons are you using?

“Engine bay has never been touched”. Total BS.
