Extremely well documented. I will following your project weekly. I have a 1967 Firebird, 400, convertible awaiting restoration (since I put it in storage in 1979..lol).
Butler Performance built a 326 stroker for a Pontiac Le Mans on Muscle Car (Power Block).
I thought about doing the same, but opted for a 455 instead. I stroked the 318 in my ’94 Jeep Grand Cherokee (390), but won’t have it driveable until the middle of next week. I received a defective rocker stud that was not drilled end to end preventing oil flow.
I’ve just realised what Muscle Car (Power Block) is… Thank you! It’s really interesting.
I’ll probably be keeping stock displacement (if I can). Should be enough for me.
How’s the Cherokee doing now?

Just about every step has been a pain! But I’m very close. I’ve got all of the loose ends tied up, but can’t fire it up until I get my valve cover modified to allow clearance for the A/C system to be charged. The Mopar Performance valve covers aren’t as small as the stockers… So most likely won’t be able to drive it until the weekend!
Great Job !!!

Keep up the great work.

Thank you!
