Re: Eagle 4" 8BA Crank?
Mike is right, it takes air to make hP. However I have a "stock'280 ci engine in my truck. It has astock valves and ports. Milled EAB heads.eab cam, 2gc carb and a dist by richard. The compression is close to 9:1 and the torque is increadable. I have a 3spwith OD and a Spicer 44 3.74 rear. The drivability is fantastic. Yes those 4" cranks sure do work. Gramps

Re: Eagle 4" 8BA Crank?
For a street driven engine, torque is king.

I’m with FlatJack. Having driven many stroker flatheads some built by me some by others. There’s no comparison. Strokers rule.

Re: Eagle 4" 8BA Crank?
I'm no FH guru like you guys but when I put the Roadrunner blower with 2 94's on the 276 motor in my one of my deuce roadsters it came alive. More air definitely helps. I would do it again with my French FH but to my knowledge Joe's not doing anymore.
