It doesn't produce vibration or harmonics...just transfers them up top if they are present in the bottom. Yet another reason to use good parts and have it well-balanced.

If he's going new anyways...a good chain and hyd. roller will certainly put him where he wants to be.

I called and talked to cammotion and he told me I need to find out a few things on the motor before he can help me. So I am waiting for the guy to get back with me about the rod length, valve sizes and cylinder bore. Now its just a waiting game.

Yours is a 393, right? While you're waiting, you ought to fill out FTI's cam-request form and drop Ed Curtis an email just for another option.
And maybe try a place called "Bullet Cams" out of N. Mississippi. Heard nothing but good things about their stuff...especially ford cam selection. Blown5.0 probably knows that crew.

I think it's a stock-length 351W rod...5.956 IIRC. with a 4.030 bore.

I know where you got the rod length but how did you get the bore?? Thanks Steven

393 is a common stroker and one of the first. It's is a stroker crank with a stock 351 rod and, of all things, a stock 302 piston. Basically you can do them on a budget...using stock 5.0L pistons and a 351 Windsor block and rods...Just buy the crank. 3.85" stroke IIRC. Stock is 3.50"

Leave it blank. I think that has to do with road-racing.
All they really need is head flow, stroke (to find piston speed at RPM), bore (for flow reasons), desired power-band, power-adder or NA, and what your goals are. they also like to know what cam you had and how it performed...gives them an idea of how the car works.
