Default Re: 1969 Judge 4 speed

When I bought the car it came with a 69 WS block.I did some checking and found out it is a restamp block.69 RA III blocks are nothing special.Just another 2 bolt block but has a diff code depending if a auto or 4 speed.Anyway,I built it from the block up to look like a RA III engine.The crank is a Ohio crank forged 4.21 stroke unit.Forged H beam rods and Ross 4.155 bore forged dished pistons for 9.5 CR.The heads are correct 69 RA III #48 heads.The cam is a compcams hyd roller with comp lifters.The heads were done by Joe Sherman racing.All new valves springs,retainers etc.H&S full roller rockers.I had nothing to build the engine so had to buy every nut and bolt to build it.It will be a very nice 455 stock looking 400 RA III driver.
