400 Crate Engine
Check this out, read through and see if you notice any discrepancies. I see they have a link to a kb piston which produces 9.5 : 1 but i cant find it on kb's site.
They say it comes with an edelbrock air gap ,yet i dont know of any for the 400 and i see no intake adaptor plates in the pics. Few other things i question but lets see what you all notice.

It is a KB148. Just a regular 351C piston with a "D" dish.

In fact you will notice they borrowed the picture right from the KB web site.

Seems a bit pricey for whats in it. I never heard of an edlebrock air gap for a 400. No cam specs but sounds like it's optimized for 4X4 application.
If you are seriously looking I'd get a quote from Tim.

Nope not looking, build my own thanks.
just thought i would share . I agree , pretty pricey but hey aluminum heads arent cheap.
Also being a cleveland piston , that leaves it too far down in the hole to take advantage of the small chamber quench head. If i was to do it again i would definetly go with Tims pistons,i feel they are the best bang for the buck.
