    I don't recognize the crank, but the piston on the bench looks like flathead Ford.

    I'd guess a ford, maybe an FE? It has a flange on the crank end and the throws aren't cross drilled.
     
  11. Why should it matter, just like a good kustom owner, he never raises the hood.

    P.S. Bruce: thanks for building me a such a nice 350. I couldn't be happier with it (once I ironed out the bugs on my end).

    I don't recognize the crank, but it looks like a fairly short stroke. High RPM screamer perhaps????

  20. It's a V8 of some sort...the rod journals are double-drilled...shared journals.

    As for stroke, you're only seeing centerline to rod journal....you gotta double that, too! Looks like at least a 4" stroke!!!
