325 Poly block

All that is correct. But if you read the original posts by Moparlee, he states that he wants to know the true compression ratio. To do so, some time and/or money will need to be spent to calculate it. Perhaps to him, this information will not be considered a waste.

pistons

While Mr. Ripley may be correct when ordering a set of custom made forged pistons, I highly doubt that the manufacturer of cast pistons that retail for under $200 (with rings) is going to make the adjustments in machining(dome OR pin location) for a .2 or .3 difference in compression. That is why th...

pistons

Also keep in mind that the final ratio will vary based on the bore being 4.0, 4.030, or 4.060. I would be interested in seeing the weight of the pistons.

timing cover spacer

That seller lists all his parts as 392, as many do on ebay. The part in question is from a 331 or 354 truck motor using the cast iron timing cover and front mount.

If you increase the crank stroke by .250, the piston will be raised .125 going up. The other .125 of the stroke will be on the down travel. I think you would be just as well off if you were to offset grind the 354 crank journals , and use a custom bbc rod with sbc crank pin diameter. If you were to ...
