Edelbrock Victor 440 Heads Smaller Journal Rod

Edelbrock Victor 440 Heads Smaller Journal Rod

Edelbrock Victor 440 Cylinder-Head Test
By going to a smaller rod journal (2.375 to 2.200), you have to remove quite a bit of material from the crank. Taking it all from the near side of the journal moves the rod center line away from the main center line, which increases the effective stroke. In our case, it works out to be about a 0.165-inch increase adding about 21 ci to the displacement. So for all you guys wondering how we came up with a 466-inch motor, that's how. View Related Article
