I had a buddy build me a 377 stroker. (Bore was real nice because it was a low mileage block. So we decided not to bore it 30 over.) He used a file to clearance the block since he didn't have a mill.

Another nicely done vid. on exact subject I have to get done on my '72 Vette block for the Eagle crank and KB .060 pistons I bought. Plan to get rods checked, also get it all balanced. Was a good, but tired engine when I pulled it in 1988. Just NA build for my 91 convertible Camaro.

Thankyou. Yea, stroker clearancing has become a very regular event these days. I'd say about 50-60% of my builds are now strokers.

Nice work Jay. I need to map it out like you did. Great idea, real time saver.👍 Did you purchase or make the pressure test plate? I have broke through on the south of the border casted blocks. 207 casting I believe. Was a race car engine we Hard Blocked it. It was fine. Had 13to1 compression. Anyway, thanks for sharing. Take care, Ed.

I made the pressure testing plates, have em for multiple engines. I've broke through the odd 010 as everyone gets excited about that casting around here. So that's what I cutt the most. Not broke any 207's yet, but I do see a lot of them. Have a few of my own. Time saving for sure! I can pop off a clearance trip to mill in about half an hour if all goes smoth that day.

I had to remove metal from the bottom of the cylinders as well as on top. Probably because I'm using beefy scat procomp rods.

Hi Jay, great video. Question for you. What is the gasket material you used to seal the top of the block with the metal plate? Im trying to do the same pressure test but cant get a seal with what i have tried. Hope you can help. Also, do you use sealer on the bolts? Thanks

Would the costumer need the crank and rods with him to see where they might hit? Or would you already know where to cut and how much without the crank and rods stabbed in

For the common rotating assemblies with 3/8" rod bolts, this has proven to be reliable. For the rods with the larger 7/16" bolts there still may be clearance issue's. I prefere to check my work before sending out but that's just me.

If I am building your engine, $200 for The clearancing, fitting and pressure testing.
