Talking Re: Mopar 440 racers - time to legalize that shortblock!

So that is what they mean by "no cross breeding of parts?" What about all the other engines that are cutting 1/2, 3/4 or even 1 inch off their decks? A year ago, I called 2007 the year of the short "decks". Of course you all know that Pontiacs have a very long rod with big strokes, so Pontiacs always stroke it deeper.

Pontiac has a natural advantage of a 455 with a 10.200 deck. That allows us a piston without pin around 370 to 400 gms. You mean we might actually get one of our natural Pontiac advantages back that was given away for free?
