Hi! I can get a M short block that got 5 3/4 stroke and 4 1/4 pistons. with 8060 head. How much hp can I get out of this set up? head is still stock, How much should or can I shave off head to help? Any ideas would be appreciated? Don't have alot of money to spend. Thanks

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO WITH IT!
In the high performance world of tractor pulling, it has no value!
PRICE (VALUE) $800.00 U.S CURRENCY

NOT BEING SARCASTIC, JUST MY OPINION !

I wouldn't cut the head any more than it takes to get it straight. That 326 CID motor should be capable of 70-75 horsepower at stock RPM. The extra bore and stroke should give you a pretty good boost in compression. Most importantly find somebody with a dyno, without the crooked needle to help you tune it.

I did not shave my head, but I simply used a dremel to polish the rough edges inside. From what I read, by simply doing this, you can gain 5-10%. If someone else wants to add in on the please do. I guess if the engine can flow more fuel/air into it, it will preform better. What do ya"ll think?
